Homeless New Yorkers languished outside in below-freezing weather Wednesday even as the death toll linked to the unbearable cold hit double-digits – with some claiming the Arctic blast still beats the city’s shelter system. Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration has been under pressure to up its efforts to get the homeless off the streets after 10 people were found dead during the recent cold snap — but Post reporters on Wednesday witnessed homeless individuals across the five boroughs defiantly staying out in the bone-chilling conditions. Homeless man George Reefus, who’s been in the city since the end of 2022, said outside the Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer subway station that no outreach worker or cop has approached him recently – and he doesn’t care.
