Posted on January 5, 2018 by Jose Martinez in NY1 NY1, By Jose Martinez Melvin Fields doesn’t have a place to call his own. But the 63-year-old does have the subway. “You know what I’m saying, it’s safe from the cold, you know what I’m saying. It’s very cold out there now,” Fields said. A deep freeze that’s sent Fields into the city’s transit system for shelter. “I be in the streets sometime. And I go to work sometime, do little odd jobs and stuff like that. I stay on the train a couple of hours,” he said.
