Today's cover: No contest: Here’s how NYC migrant hotel is far better than new Brooklyn center
Paul MartinkaAid groups advertise services near the facility.New arrivals give the shelter a thumbs up.William MillerA man sleeps in shorts and a 49ers jersey in the terminal.The bathrooms are clean but communal, each featuring eight toilets and four sinks. City Hall sources said there were around 85 or 90 total commodes.
Many migrants have griped about the lack of heat and privacy in the facility and its relative remoteness from city life.And forget about private showers. The men have to leave the main facility and enter mobile trailers outside to find a shower stall, but only if they make a reservation first.“The cruise ship terminal is better than the homeless shelter, where there were a lot of crazy American men and American men on drugs,’’ said a 42-year-old migrant from Venezuela.
“More than 43,000 asylum seekers have arrived in New York City since last spring and we continue to surpass our moral obligations as we provide asylum seekers with shelter, food, health care, education, and a host of other services.” “The facilities at Brooklyn Cruise Terminal will provide the same services as every other humanitarian relief center in the city, and the scheduled relocations to Brooklyn Cruise Terminal this weekend took place as planned. We remain in serious need of support from both our state and federal governments.”
