Quoting: nutmeg The Plaza Hotel is a luxury building.
The Park Savoy homeless shelter is near the luxury Plaza Hotel. (one block away)
I know what you're thinking, the selection of the shelter may have something to do with Trump's properties being nearby.
Trump Tower is also 2 blocks away.
Quoting: Doctor Congo No...not thinking that. I'm wondering if it has to do with Central Park nearby....just more of "open spaces" for the homeless to roam and hang out.
A few years ago they also opened up a building for the homeless. I think it was across from Central Park. West side, around 72nd street.
I found this so far...
72nd Street Pantry
