NEW YORK (AP) — New York City has shuttered a sprawling tent complex erected on a remote former airport and announced the closure of other major shelters housing asylum seekers in its latest efforts to shrink an emergency housing built up in response to a surge of migration that’s now receding. The last of the roughly 2,000 people living at Floyd Bennett Field departed over the weekend. Crews were seen dismantling the hulking structure this week. More closures are expected in the coming weeks. The moves, all told, will reduce the city’s migrant housing capacity by more than 10,000 beds.
