No I didn’t miss it, rather it doesn’t help jippy out of the hole dug he himself in his post I was responding to:
So now that it’s clear jippy can’t deliver a single immigrant being provided accommodation in a five star hotel, let’s deal with your half truths regarding The Roosevelt ‘Hotel’.
It’s no longer a hotel, it was a business fatality of the COVID recession in the hotel business and closed:

NYC have since rented the closed former hotel as emergency temporary accommodation for migrants.
Wrt your statement:
“The broader and more important point is that illegal immigrants are being housed in, shall we say 'luxury', accommodation at taxpayer expense. While American homeless and poor are left on the street and in shelters.”
NY is a bit more civilized about the matter:
“It is our moral and legal obligation to provide shelter to anyone who needs it,” the city’s Department of Social Services said in a statement. “As such, we have utilized, and will continue to utilize, every tool at our disposal to meet the needs of every family and individual who comes to us seeking shelter.”
