The West Village “grifter” who lived rent free for three years in one of NYC’s priciest neighborhoods, partly by exploiting New York’s eviction moratorium, has finally been given the boot.
Kate Gladstone, who also uses the name Katherine Klein, was evicted from owner Valentina Bajada and Heidi Russell’s two-bedroom Barrow Street pad Thursday, in an hours-long spectacle attracting a small crowd of workers and neighbors.
The saga began in June 2019, when Gladstone moved in with her child, paying $2,000 for a room in the apartment on a month-to-month basis. Similar apartments in the neighborhood can rent for nearly $7,000 and up.
