New York City Mayor Eric Adams is finalizing a deal to use a Norwegian cruise ship as migrant processing and housing center: City says luxury liner is cheaper alternative to tent shelters
  • About 15,500 migrants have made their way into New York with Mayor Eric Adams concerned this number will swell to 75,000 and strain the shelter system

  • A source has revealed that Adams is finalizing plans to house and process migrants in a Norwegian Cruise ship

  • People living on board will be allowed to move freely, however some locals believe it may cause friction in the community

  • The cruise ship is to be docked at a former naval station on the northeastern shore of Staten Island
