More asylum seekers are now living at the housing facility at Brooklyn Cruise Terminal after an encampment outside the Watson Hotel in Midtown was cleared Wednesday night.

NYPD tells asylum seekers camped out in Midtown to leave as lawmakers head to Brooklyn to tour new shelter"It is certainly not an ideal situation for anyone, but under the circumstances, it's really admirable, I think, what the city has done," Goldman said.

"Most of their core needs were being met, so I just wanna make sure we mention that. Obviously I don't think it's a place that people would want to be if they didn't have to," Williams said. Goldman also said he is working to expedite the process of getting work authorization for the asylum seekers.
