The city can move forward with plans for a men’s homeless shelter at the Park Savoy Hotel near Manhattan’s Billionaire’s Row after a state appellate court rejected a lawsuit opposing the shelter.
In a decision issued Thursday, the Albany appellate court threw out a lawsuit filed in 2018 by the West 58th Coalition group that had argued the hotel at 158 West 58th Street was too old and unsafe to house a $60.8 million, 150-bed men’s shelter, the Daily News reported.
