A taxpayer-funded luxury apartment building is reportedly set to open in Los Angeles’s Skid Row neighborhood to provide hundreds of homeless people with housing and high-end amenities.
The 278-unit, 19-story tower is going to open in a matter of weeks, and is meant to be a “self-contained environment that will insulate its formerly homeless residents from the squalor and hopelessness around them,” the Los Angeles Times reported.
