INVESTING ON THE INSIDE TOO

"The Charles Cobb, designed by the Pasadena architecture firm Kivotos Montenegro Partners Inc., opened in early April to provide apartments for chronically homeless and disabled people. It was built by the Skid Row Housing Trust for $13.1 million and includes first-floor offices for healthcare, case management and other services — a combination known as supportive housing. Residents pay 30% of their income in rent."

Linking to the LA Times Article above (sorry about all those ads for furniture).

76 homeless are housed in a well designed building where the interiors count too!
