you see, they were actually supposed to be maintained and updated over those 60 years, but scum landlords routinely refuse to provide even basic maintenance for the apartment. the landlord's own illegal neglect should not enable them to deregulate an apartment.

You just don’t get it , “basic “?
Install a bathroom while the $250/ tenant is still living there.
This apartment was probably in 1940 shit condition because it’s from 1940!!! if not 1920 !!!!
The wiring was 60+ years old , no closets , the kitchen cabinets are wood falling apart. The apartment is completely painted with lead paint.
Lucky the whole house wasn’t burnt down in the 1960s and 1970s. Or worse , the city could of foreclosed on it and they would of been running it until it caved in the 1980s and then demolished it and sold to a politically connected developer.

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

They were prob maintained to the code 60 yrs ago or whenever tenant signed original lease that's reflective in the rent. Most of the modern codes and required updates don't go into effect until you do renovations. Till then, its only repair as needed if violate something not replace.
