The city finally cleaned up the vile Queens hovel belonging to the Big Apple\u2019s most notorious homeless lovebirds<\/a> \u2014 only after The Post reported about the shocking eyesore \u2014 but left behind a main source of the pigsty.<\/p>\n

Marabel and Michael \u2014 the booze-guzzling, sex-having, sidewalk-defecating duo who turned 30th Avenue near Steinway Street into their personal playpen\u2013 had their encampment in Mayor Mamdani\u2019s old Astoria neighborhood cleaned out twice this week, delighting locals who had dodged the gross scene for over a month.<\/p>\n

By Friday morning there was no trace of their mess, but Michael was still on the scene, having refused help after authorities took Marabel to a hospital, he said.<\/p>\n

Marabel and Michael migrated down 30th Avenue to a fertility clinic on Thursday but that love nest has also been cleared out and removed by city authorities. J.C. Rice for NY Post<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m waiting for her here. I hope she\u2019s okay,\u201d Michael, who has claimed to be a former Marine, told The Post. <\/p>\n

The pair were rousted Wednesday by the Department of Homeless Services, the NYPD, and Sanitation Department, after The Post\u2019s sex<\/p>\n

The randy couple initially moved some of their homely heap just down the block to an even busier stretch of 30th Avenue, and spent a day in front of a fertility clinic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis summer is going to be great because it\u2019s the 250th anniversary of America. It\u2019ll be good for people like us who like to party,\u201d Marabel said Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a party animal,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

By that evening, the new love nest was also gone \u2014 but Michael, who rejected offers to be taken to a shelter, said he had no plans to leave the prime real estate.<\/p>\n

Chris Singler, a local who witnessed Michael defecating in a pizza box and said his wife saw the pair having sex in the middle of the sidewalk, was grateful the mess was gone \u2014 at least for now. <\/p>\n

\u201cVery relieved to have the street cleaned up. Getting up and going to the gym at 5:30 a.m. is hard enough without having to dodge excrement on my way through a homeless orgy,\u201d the 46-year-old said.<\/p>\n

Astoria real estate executive Charles Sciberras blamed Mamdani\u2019s kid gloves approach for the spiraling problem. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re killing business. The big problem is the mayor, he\u2019s a loser,\u201d said Sciberras. \u201c[Mayor] Adams did it very simply. When they had a person they removed them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re gonna come back. Its a revolving door,\u201d the 75-year-old said. \u201cYou can\u2019t get rid of them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The city finally cleaned up the vile Queens hovel belonging to the Big Apple\u2019s most notorious homeless lovebirds…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":193655,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[3814,2000,77306,57,9,24,63,103,122,124,123,58],"class_list":{"0":"post-193654","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-queens","8":"tag-astoria","9":"tag-homelessness","10":"tag-honeymoons","11":"tag-metro","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-city","14":"tag-nyc","15":"tag-nypd","16":"tag-queens","17":"tag-queens-headlines","18":"tag-queens-news","19":"tag-us-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193654","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=193654"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193654\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/193655"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=193654"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=193654"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=193654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
