The migrant crisis could soon be literally hitting home for New York City Mayor Eric Adams, as he appears to be tossing around the idea of using Gracie Mansion to house asylum seekers as they continue to pour into the city
Adams said he'll share his waterfront view with a migrant family as long as city guidelines agree. The mayor did not say how long he thinks it would take to investigate the logistics of such a plan, but said he believes he has enough space for a migrant family or two.
"I think we have to find a way to put people up in the city," said Eric Fowler, who lives in Gramercy.It wasn't immediately clear how much residents would get paid to house migrants, but the plan would come with a catch: It would have to work around the city's 30-day rule and other provisions that dictate how long it takes someone to become a tenant.It also comes after Adams announced thatin an effort to take some of the pressure off hotels and the city's shelter system.
