RedScare Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 these are efficiency apartments, not a shelter.They still fill a need, as low income single adults have few options other than a shelter or the street. Housing is not a one size fits all proposition. Shelters serve as housing of last resort. These rooms will help those who have managed to get a step above that level.
