Planned Parenthood of Greater New York (PPGNY) is shutting down its massive abortion operation in Manhattan, putting an end to a decades-long slaughterhouse in the heart of New York City, as reported by The Gateway Pundit. The organization announced that its $39 million SoHo property on Bleecker Street is being sold, marking yet another blow to the abortion industry in the Empire State.
Last year, The Gateway Pundit reported a significant decline in Planned Parenthood’s footprint across New York, with multiple facilities shutting down due to dwindling funds and political setbacks. Now, the abortion giant admits it can no longer sustain operations at its high-profile Manhattan location, citing “compounding financial and political challenges.”
PPGNY previously announced that clinics in Goshen, Amsterdam, Cobleskill, and Staten Island would be shutting their doors. Initially, it claimed that some services at the Manhattan center—such as late-term abortions—would only be temporarily paused.
But now, the entire facility is being permanently closed, dealing a significant blow to the left’s radical abortion agenda in deep-blue New York. In a press release, PPGNY lamented its struggles, blaming “social and political obstacles” along with systemic financial issues.
The organization whined about inadequate Medicaid reimbursements and a lack of private insurance coverage for their so-called “high-quality sexual and reproductive health services.”
“Like many health care providers, PPGNY is fighting to overcome social and political obstacles and structural challenges within the country’s health system. Thanks to the generosity of donors, PPGNY proudly cares for patients no matter their insurance status or ability to pay.”
Despite claiming that donor money keeps its operations afloat, PPGNY admitted it has no choice but to close its doors, revealing the growing financial strain on the abortion industry. Wendy Stark, President and CEO of PPGNY, acknowledged that the funds from selling the building will be redirected to “systemically underserved communities” elsewhere in the state. For years, the Bleecker Street location has been the site of major pro-life protests.
Activists, including Fr. Fidelis Moscinski from Red Rose Rescue, have tirelessly stood against the blood money fueling Planned Parenthood’s operations. Fr. Moscinski, alongside fellow pro-life advocates Fr. Nix and Will Goodman, was recently found guilty of trespassing after a peaceful 2019 protest in New Jersey.
The group had entered an abortion clinic’s waiting area, offering red roses to expectant mothers as a symbol of life and hope. A judge sentenced them to 18 months of probation, with the condition that any future arrests in New Jersey would result in jail time. Both Fr. Moscinski and Goodman had previously been jailed by Biden’s DOJ for their pro-life activism.
Fortunately, President Donald Trump wasted no time in correcting this injustice, issuing pardons for them and other federal pro-life prisoners just days after returning to the White House.
With the closure of this major Manhattan abortion hub, the pro-life movement can count this as a hard-fought victory.
While Planned Parenthood scrambles to salvage its operations, it’s clear that public sentiment and political momentum are shifting against the abortion industry.
