Comment: This is a tough one with absolutely no easy fix. First off, I have a tremendous amount of empathy for my fellow human beings who are facing a profound upheaval in their lives. However, I have experience with family members who have lived in hotels like this off of Broadway. Lowering or subsidizing their rent will not help the problem in the long term. It temporarily puts off the inevitable future catastrophe. Without changing life habits and mindsets, these folks will just shuffle off to the next tenuous living situation. In my experience about a third of the people in this type of living arrangement are open to changing their lives. My family member was part of the 2/3 who aren't. I'm not judging, but this person was simply not ready to "move up" unless it was given to them. In this person's case, drugs were the reason, but spending time around these types of hotels, drugs aren't the only deciding factor. I used to eat at the restaurant across from the King's Inn. This needs to happen
