New York City’s Roosevelt Hotel, which has served as a key intake center for asylum seekers for nearly two years, is set to close next month, Mayor Eric Adams announced.

The closure comes as President Donald Trump’s administration escalates its immigration crackdown, including the withdrawal of federal funding that has supported the city’s migrant response efforts.

The hotel played a crucial role in New York’s humanitarian response, operating as both an emergency relief center and arrival hub during the peak of the crisis. At its height, the city was processing around 4,000 new arrivals per week. That number has now declined significantly, with an average of 350 asylum seekers registering each week.

“We’re not done caring for those who came into our care,” Adams said. “Today marks another milestone in the immense progress we’ve achieved in turning the corner on this unprecedented international humanitarian effort.”

In total, the city plans to close 53 emergency migrant shelters between last summer and this June. Meanwhile, more than 84% of eligible adults in the city’s care have applied for work authorization.

Adams also announced a lawsuit against the Trump administration on Friday, accusing the federal government of improperly withdrawing $80 million from a city bank account—funds that were allocated for migrant aid. The legal battle adds to ongoing tensions between the city and the White House over immigration policy and federal support.
