Rally against
Glen. shelter
BY ROBERT POZARYCKI
The Glendale Middle Village
Coalition’s eff orts to stop a
proposed homeless shelter
from opening in their area will go
mobile this Sunday.
Kathy Masi, president of the
Glendale Civic Association, invited
residents in a Facebook post to take
part in the Sept. 23 rally against
the conversion of a long-defunct
factory at 78-16 Cooper Ave., on the
Glendale/Middle Village border,
into a facility for homeless men.
Masi encouraged residents to
meet up at the Forest Park Bandshell
parking lot, located on Forest Park
Drive off Woodhaven Boulevard,
at 9 a.m. on Sept. 23. They’ll then
board buses that will depart at 10
a.m. and head to the rally location.
As of press time, however, the organizers
have not disclosed where
the rally will be held, though Masi
indicated it would be at a location
outside of Queens.
“We need at least 200 people to
make a statement,” Masi wrote on
Facebook. “Please tell your friends
and neighbors.”
In July, as previously reported, local
officials learned that the Department of
Homeless Services (DHS) was working
on a plan to create a shelter at the former
factory for up to 200 homeless men. The
news came months after the agency
announced the original homeless
shelter plan for the site, first proposed
in 2014 and met with staunch local
opposition, had been taken off the table.
If you’re interested in attending
Sunday’s rally, email gmvcoalitioninfo@
