[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There aren't enough beds in homeless shelters, let alone hospitals. This is a total PR stunt. And the people cheering it would scream bloody murder if a homeless shelter was built anywhere near them, or if public money was spent to build or expand a public hospital that could treat the mentally ill poor. [/quote] Perhaps. But they did just build a massive migrant center. So perhaps they will house them with the folks arriving on buses from Texas and Florida. [/quote] Most of the those people will become employed and will not be unhoused. Many office buildings throughout the boroughs are nearing the end of their leases and companies are vigorously shedding office space. Those tours could be adapted for SROs which were once prevalent in New York. It would take less re-configuring than creating individual apartments and would be a move toward regulated institutionalization. [/quote]
