Original Note:
Misleading. The petition was not opposed to the shelter itself, just its proposed location directly across the street from an elementary school. This raised concerns as the shelter will be catering to single males with drug addictions or mental health challenges. https://www.change.org/p/oppose-the-single-men-shelter-proposal-at-41-beekman-street https://tribecacitizen.com/2023/11/30/city-plans-homeless-shelter-for-beekman-and-william/ https://nypost.com/2024/02/10/metro/fidi-fights-city-scheme-to-open-mens-homeless-shelter-near-grade-school/
