DENVER (KDVR) — Denver is set to open a micro-community in the Overland Park neighborhood off South Santa Fe Drive on Monday. It’s part of Mayor Mike Johnston’s House1000 initiative.
“The micro-community is going to provide opportunity to people to survive,” Denver District 7 Council Member Flor Alvidrez said.
People from an encampment off Colfax Avenue and Umatilla Street will be moved to the community, which is made up of 60 tiny homes. The community will offer wraparound services, including medical care and employment services.
“We have worked so hard to get to this point,” Alvidrez

That looks like either a new design for a minimum security prison, or a scientific research station that belongs on the tundra a lot further North...

“Micro-community”? “Tent Cities”? “Immigrant Shelters”?

Call them all “BIDENVILLES”!

It looks like a place with no way to get out if the place caught on fire.

It sounds like a 15 minute City that they’re going to try to hurt all the people into to rewild the majority of the United States.

Not to difficult to predict the outcome of this crap...
Robbery, rape, muggings, car-jacking, drugs, riots, shoplifting, and looting coming to Overland Park...

It looks like a place with no way to get out if the place caught on fire. Yikes, true! When I built a large tool shed for my hobbies, I altered it and built in a back door. Good to have an escape path.

I live in N Texas close to Plano. It amazes me how many hundreds of high density apartment buildings are being built ... and where? ... close to rail lines, super highways and bus lines. You’re gonna love living in a 15 minute village.

There’s a very real problem with fires in homeless encampments.
Same here in Los Angeles after they burn them down the camp out in abandoned warehouses or companies and burn them down huge fires.
Wonder when the insurance companies will get something done about it.
