Up to 400 Chicago migrants could be temporarily relocated to Wright College in Dunning near Portage Park as police stations remain packed.Located on the city's Northwest Side, the college is the latest target of a city desperately seeking out underutilized buildings where migrants, now sleeping on police stations all across Chicago, can be safely housed until more stable shelter space opens up.
