The proposed shelter, which would entail the conversion of the Park Savoy Hotel on NYC’s Upper West Side, is in a neighborhood called “Billionaires’ Row”:
A homeless shelter’s going into the Park Savoy Hotel on 58th St., “Billionaire’s Row”. I personally think it’s a brilliant political move by @NYCMayor. pic.twitter.com/Db0qCyCoeb

Angry residents did win a temporary stop on construction at the hotel after it was discovered the city didn’t have the proper permits for the work:

Well, what did these rich residents expect from their liberal mayor? Did they expect him to follow his own rules? PFFT!
