Days after crews erected airplane hangar-sized tents in a parking lot in The Bronx, a weekend of downpours brought several inches of rain to the site, flooding an area that planned to temporarily house hundreds of recently arrived migrants.

New York City’s first Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Center – intended to support thousands of people seeking asylum in the US, including hundreds bused to the city by Texas Governor Greg Abbott – will instead open on another parking lot on Randall’s Island in the East River.

The plan under Mayor Eric Adams aims to ease the burden on the city’s already-strained shelter system, while addressing what he has called a “humanitarian crisis” fuelled by Republican governors like Abbott and Florida’s Ron DeSantis sending recently arrived migrants – most of whom have fled violence and political and economic collapse in South and Central America before crossing the US-Mexico border – to Democrat-led cities hundreds of miles away.
