Staten Island residents gathered Saturday in Midland Beach to speak up about transforming a former nursing home into a migrant shelter after it was closed.
"This place provided a great stopgap for a year. We were very fortunate to provide this place," Sinclair said.
"That was 10 years ago - take care of our veterans, take care of our American homeless, take care of our mentally ill," said Midland Beach resident Thea Friscia. "They expect it to open in the fall. We don't know exactly what that means at that stage. We don't know the exact - it could house hundreds of migrants here, it's supposed to house families with children. And it's not an influx of individuals that this neighborhood could sustain," Carr said.
