NYC extends lease for Floyd Bennett Field migrant shelter in Brooklyn
Briefly

"For the past two years, the Adams administration has served over 215,000 asylum seekers with dignity and care, helping approximately 70 percent of migrants that have come through our care take the next steps in their journeys..."
"With over 210 emergency sites currently operating and hundreds of new arrivals continuing to arrive in New York City every week, we have been out of good options for a while now."
"The site at Floyd Bennett Field has been one tool in our very limited toolbox for sheltering hundreds of migrant families with children every night."
"Gov. Kathy Hochul gave her approval to build a shelter at the former airfield in August 2023, and the city entered into a lease agreement with the federal government in September 2023."
