  • A complex of giant tents built on an island opened Wednesday as New York City’s latest temporary shelter for an influx of international migrants being bused into the city by southern border states.
  • The influx has put a strain on the city’s shelter system, leading officials to look for other places to house people and propose the temporary tent facilities.
  • The number of single men has soared since the spring, largely because of the influx of migrants.
