Watt Works is a new housing project supporting formerly homeless individuals.

I love larger projects like this. As well we need hundreds more projects like this to deal properly with the homeless problem.

They are well executed. Nice concepts. I like them too

[@christychristo7433]

This is wonderful. I hope it won't be too expensive for homeless people to afford later. More of this is needed to take them off the street

It's fabulous they've put this together for the homeless & they need to make many more but Small spaces like this though a massive step up from the street do affect the mental health of their occupants over time. This floor plan represented looks absolutely brutal waste of space with a massively over sized bathroom! Container City in London uses the same space with a much smaller bathroom & the kitchen backed up against the bathroom for one wet wall per unit & much more livable space in a double wide 20' containers.

First!😀

That won't stay for the homeless for too long, bet it will be gentrified. A single high paid person would move in!

I don't like your accent

[@sheltermode]

Thanks

That's really rude. And borders on racism. There are zillions of accents around the world.
