"The world is very gray today: It's raining in New York City.
From the outside, the building looks like any other old hotel in midtown
Manhattan, but it is one of the largest migrant centers for families with
children in the city. About 3,500 people are housed here.
Inside the building, the light is dim and there's the constant murmur of people
shuffling in and out. Somewhere in this labyrinth of hallways, there's a room
that's in technicolor.
This is the meeting point for a Girl Scouts troop, in partnership with New York
City Health and Hospitals.
One by one, the scouts start trickling in. Their ages are kindergarden through
12.
They all are recently-arrived migrant children from Latin America, whose
families are seeking asylum."
