ZONING LAWS.

They prevent more than a specified number of unrelated people from living together, but that includes bands, cults, Justin Bieber fan clubs, you name it. It has NOTHING to do with prostitution or brothels.

Yeah, doesn't NYU have Greek housing, too. I know I've walked past some Greek housing walking around NYC.

I know they have floors in the apartments. I've also seen some greek letters around the NYU area, dunno if it's still greek housing though.
