Albany, NY asked in Landlord - Tenant for New York

Q: Is it legal for a landlord to indirectly evicted you and demolishes your property without notifying a tenant

Only reason I ask is because my rent was paid up and I have proof but I ended up getting evicted during COVID-19 and I'm a senior citizen and I just don't understand how that happened
