Cops are still looking for the attacker who stabbed two college students on the gentrified #Bowery, whose fanny pack and sandwich he stole, after they had bought the sandwich for a homeless man.

Watch deleted scenes from the "Sunshine Hotel" documentary. The #SunshineHotel used to be a private SRO hotel on the #Bowery where low-income men used to live in small windowless rooms with chicken-wire ceilings. The #NYCHRA also sent homeless men there with one-night vouchers.
