staying at temporary shelters have been moved to North Side lakefront neighborhoods over the past few days.
According to OEMC, more than 100 people staying at the 1st District police station in the South Loop, about two miles from Grant Park,, a decision that was the subject of community pushback by some residents. Since buses sent by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott fueled an influx of migrants arriving in Chicago last spring, the city has grappled with how to best shelter them. Shelters and welcome centers have cropped up throughout the summer, but some are running out of resources and struggling to meet demand.
Josimar Goyo and Brayan Hernandez, a pair of relatives who made the trip from Venezuela together, were among those moved to the new American Islamic College shelter in Uptown from Wilbur Wright. They were moved Monday, said Hernandez, 20, and had taken a liking to it so far.The biggest improvement the pair said was the improved privacy of moving from rooms shared by hundreds of people to rooms shared among a handful of families.
"The city had to do it because we’re not able to move all the crap that people drop off there," Montesinos said.
