So, here we are in Eric Adams’ NYC, and it seems like we’re navigating some pretty rough waters. Thousands of adult migrants, patiently waiting outside the former St. Brigid’s School and spilling into Tompkins Square Park, are facing quite the dilemma. Why? Well, after their 30-day and 60-day stay limits expired, they’re scrambling to secure a bed in the city’s shelter system.
But hold on, because things took a nasty turn last week. The city Parks Department decided to pull the plug on a trio of Port-a-potties in the park. Why? Apparently, they had reached a point of no return in terms of cleanliness – a real-life toilet saga.
According to locals, the toilets had become so filthy that even the workers threw in the towel on maintenance. Street cleaner John Cashvan shared his charming experience, mentioning a cup he initially thought was discarded hot chocolate, only to discover it was something far less appetizing.
And as if that’s not enough, the past week has seen a less-than-pleasant art installation around the park – cups filled with urine near the entrance, human-sized poop in tree beds, and between parked cars. Lovely, right?
Longtime resident Garrett Rosso paints a vivid picture of the situation, noting that most migrants prefer peeing in plastic cups rather than on the ground. The result? A dozen cups filled with urine spotted on people’s doorsteps.
Welcome to the not-so-glamorous side of the city that never sleeps under Eric Adams’ watch. How do you think NYC should address these challenges? Let’s talk about it.
