\n An entrenched group of homeless people is making life miserable for residents and merchants in Manhattan\u2019s East Village \u2014 despite Mayor Bill de Blasio\u2019s vow to \u201cdo whatever it takes\u201d to break up such encampments.<\/p>\n

The vagrants are living under a stretch of scaffolding along Second Avenue between East Seventh and East Eighth streets, where they\u2019ve arranged cast-off furniture and set up a tarp under which two men were sleeping Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt makes me feel uncomfortable. It makes our city dirty and noisy,\u201d said neighborhood resident Olga, 78, who\u2019s lived in the East Village for 33 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was one woman who was making pee-pee and caca by the bus stop. It was very dirty and disgusting. Nobody wanted to use the bus stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

The owner of an eatery across the street also said the situation app<\/a>eared to be spiraling out of control.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey started camping out there when the weather got warmer and recently it got bigger,\u201d the restaurateur said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of them have mental issues. They drink a lot and fight with each other. They throw bottles.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Thursday, de Blasio was questioned during his daily news<\/a> conference about a series<\/a> of other encampments across Manhattan, following a NYPD raid that broke up the \u201cOccupy City Hall\u201d site early Wednesday morning, about month after it was established.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone who tells us about an encampment, we\u2019re going to have it addressed right away by Homeless Services, Sanitation, [NY]PD,\u201d de Blasio said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever it takes.\u201d<\/p>\n

One homeless resident of the East Village encampment, who identified herself as Solaura, 43, said she wound up there after losing a taxpayer-funded bed at the DoubleTree hotel in Chelsea.<\/p>\n

Solaura, whose face and limbs are covered with tattoos, said she was a transsexual sex worker and was unable to abide by rules that required her to be inside by 10 p.m.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am a highly marginalized individual and I just don\u2019t have the same opportunity as a lot of cisgender people as far as employment goes, so the work I do is at night or I would have no income,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Another resident, who gave his name as Macswel Hasanoeddin, said he was registered to stay at a nearby shelter but had been living at the encampment on and off for the past two or three weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn homeless shelters, people feel like it\u2019s like a jail,\u201d said Hasanoeddin, 52.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are a lot of concerns about things getting stolen so a lot of people don\u2019t want to go. Curfew isn\u2019t bad but there are other factors that people don\u2019t wanna deal with, so they\u2019d rather stay on the street.\u201d<\/p>\n

City Hall didn\u2019t return a request for comment.<\/p>\n
