New York City is preparing to shelter around 1,000 illegal immigrants in the parking lot of a mental hospital as the city continues to take on new arrivals.
At a Wednesday press conference, Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced his administration had selected the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center in Queens as the location of the city’s newest humanitarian emergency response and relief center. He said this new shelter location will be used to house approximately 1,000 males who are seeking asylum within the United States.
