Our courts are to blame for releasing crazies to the public.
The tracks along this area has housed the homeless for years and no one has done anything about it. The Stop and Shop owner is responsible for their portion - they should remove and evict whomever they find there with the police on site.
Actually, Stop and Shop is not "responsible for their portion". This guy is on CSX property and the federal railroad police will be visiting the site today.
Federal railroad police? You mean city cops can't do anything about this bum?
thank god someone is coming and seeing this.. i'm more concern about a fire! the nut has lived in this area for a long time and i believe he lives with his mother. he goes to this site to hang out and create his art work, lol...

"Our courts are to blame for releasing crazies to the public."
No, our legislature is - they make the law, remember? The courts enforce it.
So much work went into that structure. give him a job at the Dept of Buildings!
the sad reality is that shelters are filthy places full of drug addicts, scabies, bedbugs and dangerous mentally ill people.
That dude's name is Tommy Lee? Who knew.
Anyone know what happened to the Maspeth Crazy Lady? I'm worried.
no clue but watch out for tommy lee total dirtbag thief
Are you talking about this guy?
This just in...
This is an art project, not a homeless hangout!

It's federal property. Unless it's an emergency (this is NOT) local police will not touch a federal problem. (And before you cop-haters start, this is in ANY jurisdiction, not just NYPD.)
IN THIS BAD ECONOMY WE ARE ALL IN DANGER OF BEING ONE PAYCHECK SHORT
OF LIVING IN THE STREET..WITH JOBS
ENDING AND COMPANIES CLOSING THE ONCE BOOMING WEST MASPETH FACTORIES AND WAREHOUSES ARE IN THE MIST OF HIGH RENT GREED. DON'T KNOCK THE KID IN THE SHANTY...YOU MAY BE HIS ROOMMATE.
Read the article, please. There is no one in the shanty. This is someone's art project.

Thanks for the correction. There has been homeless men from here to Elliot Ave making their shelters here for years. Now that Tank park will open in 2-5 years, this will become a more serious issue (already serious) with these drug abusers lurking about. Con-Rail knows the issues but does nothing but annual cleanups and shoo out these folks.
hey crappy that could be him i cant believe it that people were frantic that he was sick all he does is harass people at stop shop for booze money then goes to the park down the street and craps in public likes its his pvt toilet. crappy u know th epark is supposed to be completed
