MOFTB refers to DHS homeless shelter as "rundown hotel"

This came from the COMET civic association website. 73-00 Queens Blvd happens to be a city contracted homeless shelter run by the same owner as the Pan Am. It's nice to see him making even more money off his property than he is from warehousing the unfortunate.

And happy to see that the city is at least admitting now that these places they utilize to house homeless families in are dumps. Progress!

Could this be another Broadway Stages production?

And if not, could the production company of this possibly have made donations to the late campaign for one new york (for developer plundering and profiting and hipshit consumerism)

Don't the production companies write the requests for permits? I don't think City Hall Scumbags have anything to do with this other than approving the request...

JQ, if you read the link, it's for filming of the show "Blindspot." I believe it's on ABC.

Back in the day, the Metro was the "Mets Motel" and was a go-to spot for after prom on the cheap.

It could be that the production company wrote this, but it was mailed out by the mayors office. Just further proof that they will rubber stamp absolutely anything, even filming in a shelter that the city is already paying the owner handsomely for homeless housing.

I read the link, I was just guessing. And blindspot is on NBC and it's stupid.

I remember when it was the mets motel. It actually used the same font from the team on the sign.

And it wasn't only for banging after the prom.

Crapper:

this is how demented these people are, the way they flaunt their shit at the citizenry. For this is their attempt at transparency.

"MOFTB"? I had to look that up. I thought for a second that in a moment of transparency, they renamed DOB to the Ministry of Truth!

Our corner was used as a set for a Calcutta slum! Nice.
