Chaos and fury erupted Monday in New York City’s affluent Upper East Side as residents packed a public meeting in protest of a planned homeless shelter they said "reeks of a for-profit intent."
The women's shelter, which was converted from a men’s center after massive public pushback, is slated to open around April and will accommodate up to 250 women.
At a Community Board 8 Manhattan meeting hosted by Housing Solutions of New York (HSNY), opponents sounded alarms over the shelter’s proximity to schools and daycare centers. Residents also accused city officials of deliberately rushing the process to limit community input, fast-tracking a deal they say appears lucrative for developers with little regard for neighborhood well-being.
The city reportedly told local leaders in early 2025 that the project was indefinitely shelved, only to announce it as an active and nearly completed center in January 2026, leaving the community with just weeks to organize before it opens.

Manhattan knows how to NIMBY.
Loud and nasty is the way to go.
Lol.
The warm embrace begins.
“Movin’ on up! To the East Side...”
Hey East Siders? Quit voting Democrat and you won’t have these problems.
These are the people who elected the Commie.
The Commie should just confiscate all their belongings, subdivide their homes and condos, and dish them out to his friends.
People who elect Commies are for this. They can’t possibly believe otherwise.
You asked for it, you got it, Mamdani!
Embrace the Suck!
They are so ungrateful, here they get the wonderful warm embrace of collectivism and all they do is complain.
Obviously, they are not enlightened and may even need some re-education.
I for one am quite thrilled Mamdani (/sarfoff) is not in charge of NY as he is one who will help them understand.
And now New Yorkers are learning the Mamdani’s major plan for snow removal centers around something with the mysterious codename of ‘April’.
not = now, my mistake
I gotta admire the Left. Their politicians actually do all the commie stuff they campaigned on doing.
And this is what it looks like.
Hahahahahahahah! And YOU have given me my first Free Republic smile of the day!
Even leftist Karen’s have limits NIMBY
Explodes? Don’t give ISLAMamdani and his followers any ideas.
The slogan for his re-election campaign?
“...is slated to open around April and will accommodate up to 250 women.”
And just how many of these “women” will be Guys In Dresses?
The AWFULs are having a conniption fit!
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
Many pimps and drug dealers will be there, too.
