A former Motel 6 in Whittier will soon be transformed into permanent housing for people experiencing homelessness.
It will be made up of 97 mini homes. A small park will be built and will be open to the public.
"It's a project that really proves that we can not only get people housed but we can get people housed in a way that improves surrounding communities as well," said Holos Communities board member Victoria Hunt-Weiss said. Cristian Ahumada, CEO of Holos Communities, said the property will have sustainable features that will break down noise pollution and save water as well.
"Each building that we develop has the power to clean the air, preserve and recycle water, provide open space, address food insecurity, increase wildfire resilience and provide opportunities for economic mobility," Ahumada said."I think everyone is going to want to build a project like this after they see what we do here," she said.They expect the first tenants to move right after the grand opening which is expected by the end of next year.
