New York City is moving its tent city for around 16,000 illegal immigrants from the Bronx to Randall’s Island citing flooding problems caused by weekend storms.

Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat, announced the move on Monday night saying the relocation of the $150 million Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Center was the “most efficient and effective path forward.” The project had already commenced construction.
