Lawless NYC homeless encampment near Intrepid grows to 12 blocks as locals plead for officials to step in


A grotesque homeless encampment continues to expand on Manhattan’s West Side and now covers 12 city blocks with theft, drugs and prostitution flourishing in broad daylight, The Post has learned.

Dozens of tents and makeshift shelters now extend from 34th Street to 46th Street along 11th Avenue, a worrisome eyesore for local workers and residents as well as tourists lining up to visit the popular Intrepid Museum — with City Hall turning a blind eye and NYPD cops zipping by and doing nothing.

City Hall and the NYPD has turned a blind eye to the West Side shantytown that now covers 12 city blocks.

“We cant get rid of them,” one city parks enforcement officer said Sunday. “These ones here are stealing everything. They stole our key for the hose. They stole our ladder. They take what they can. And there are escorts in there too. Prostitutes. I see them, they’re right there.
