Built from New York City's own 311 open data (dataset erm2-nwe9), 384 nearby spots from May 15, 2021 to today. This page documents a government's response to public-safety obstructions. It is not about, and does not identify, any individual experiencing homelessness. They are failed by this inaction, not the cause of it.
