That is around $575,000 per unit! For homeless refusing to work, panhandlers, mental hindered, etc.? Why not something more affordable, durable?

They learn nothing from the housing complexes in Chicago.
State of the art will have human feces smeared on it within
30 days of occupancy.
Might just as well take the cost of the building, and burn
the cash to keep them warm on the street.

Will it have safety nets surrounding it so they’ll catch suicide jumpers like they have on the Golden Gate Bridge?

How many of the Hattians will it house? Not many I’d think. They’ll need thousands more.

Stack up a bunch of 40’ cargo containers with air conditioners and external stairs.
Cheap and easy.

It might not look like a housing project, but it isn’t the looks of a building that gives it that special housing project ambience.
The people who built Pruitt-Igoe and the Robert Taylor Homes had high hopes too.

You’ve got that right! I saw an interview (Project Veritas?) with a guy that ran a homeless shelter. One of the things they do for people that stay there is register them to vote using the shelter address. By the time elections come around, the people are long gone, but the mail-in ballots go- guess where?

Have nothing through one’s own poor life choices? Don’t worry. Responsible people will take care of you in ways better than they can afford for themselves and their own families. Just be sure to vote Democrat to keep the free stuff flowing.
Ugh!
