Will people still be able to sleep on the sidewalk near David Schwimmer's house once he lives there?

Whenever I walk by the incoming Schwimmer Estate on East Sixth Street in the morning, I usually spot some people sleeping on the sidewalk two doors to the east... in front of the new cafe that's opening...



As far as I can tell, they are travelers... likely around just for the summers, of course. But other people who have camped near here have been a little more permanent — at least when they weren't going to Rikers.

Anyway, once the Schwimmer Clan moves in, do you think they'll be OK with people sleeping so close to their million-dollar home? Maybe that's part of the flavor of living here? Or perhaps he'll have the 9th Precinct keep the area free of any sidewalk sleepers... sending them up the block...

Guess we'll find out soon enough.

And here's how the Schwimmer Estate was looking as of yesterday....

    While performing at the new cafe that's opening, Lisa Kudrow confronts the sleeping traveler snoring loudly outside and ends up dating him. Their relationship goes OK until he gets offered a grant to go to Minsk and doesn't know what to do. Meanwhile Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer all hum the theme from The Odd Couple at them. God they're so annoying. Why I won't be going to the new cafe that's opening ever again.

    Sleeping, living on city streets is not acceptable.

    sorry, anarchy is not okay in civil society.

    where are the police?

    I would imagine that homeless people sleeping on the street would be more of an issue for the propietors of the new cafe, than they would be for people living several buildings away...

    These people need to be punished from sleeping on the street. It is unacceptable and I feel like it has gotten so much worse lately. WTF is going on?
