Homeless Woman

For the past few months, this woman has been a semi-permanent resident in the 181st Street station of the "A" train in Washington Heights.

She was hanging out in our co-op lobby, but the board hired a security guard after she used our vestibule as a restroom.

There is an increasing number of homeless in WaHi. Many more beggars are in front of the bodegas here, and there are higher numbers of those using the 181st Street station (and our building's vestibule) as their home.
