New York City shutters sprawling migrant tent camp on remote former airfield
- New York City has closed a tent complex for migrant families at Floyd Bennett Field as the emergency shelter system shrinks due to declining migrant numbers.
- About 2,000 people lived at the Floyd Bennett Field encampment, which is now dismantled, with 50,000 migrants currently housed across temporary sites.
- Advocates say more needs to be done for permanent housing as the city plans further shelter closures, reducing capacity by 7,800 beds.
- Migrant families, like that of Gabriel Montillas, face challenges in transit and daily routines after being relocated from the now-closed shelter.
