A new, ‘first-class’ high-rise will house homeless people on L.A.’s skid row
“‘One of the things we asked the architect is we don’t want it to look like a housing project,’ Murray, a former state senator, said ‘We want it to look like one of these other first-class downtown apartments.’
The $160-million first phase will include 228 studio units and 47 one-bedroom units, all coupled to supportive services including case management, medical and mental health treatment services, client plan development, group meetings and a meals program. Three units will be for managers.”
