DENVER (KDVR) — Denver is set to open a micro-community in the Overland Park neighborhood off South Santa Fe Drive on Monday. It’s part of Mayor Mike Johnston’s House1000 initiative.
“The micro-community is going to provide opportunity to people to survive,” Denver District 7 Council Member Flor Alvidrez said.
People from an encampment off Colfax Avenue and Umatilla Street will be moved to the community, which is made up of 60 tiny homes. The community will offer wraparound services, including medical care and employment services.
“We have worked so hard to get to this point,” Alvidrez

Biden: "Look you dog faced pony soldier, we're going with microcommunism. Me and Trotsky came up with a plan and by golly it will work. . . . Where's the ice cream? They said there would be ice cream."
I watched a video yesterday of two young women in Canada who were very pleased with themselves over the community of tiny homes they had put together.
Interestingly, it looked like Stalag 17.
It even had guards.
They had absolutely no idea of the idea of “Opportunity Costs” or whether something like this had been successful anywhere else.
They were just giddy about looking good on television and not spending their own money to do it.
The houses are too congested. No place for parking and sitting outside. It is almost like they need it to be twice the size and guard towers to complete the image.
Looks like a libtard’s dream. The homeless will leave shortly as they always do - fair to say thousands of illegals will stampede the place, property values will go down and riots will originate in the area.
Hope they have a narcan nanny making rounds.
I take it it’s not in his neighborhood or anywhere close to it.
Is the wall built to keep people in or keep people out?
Is this denver’s version of the 15 min city? The 1 minute city?
Looks like the neighbors will be thrilled. Pic in #7
CO ping - Utter insanity in Denver, IOWs, SNAFU.
More like reacharound services.
Do they check in and out thru a gate? Have badges?
Police, Fire Dept, Trash service? Who pays?
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
That they are. Considering that almost all of us have family who LEGALLY immigrated & made positive contributions to society.
So where’s all the free services for tax payers and citizens?
We need to get the homeless off the streets, but we shouldn't locate them in villages very close to where they used to lay on the sidewalk.
If we create these communities in desolated areas, require the occupants to get sober, get straight, and do manual labor until they can acquire a job and get someone to rent them an apartment then that would be a win-win.
Unfortunately the volunteer orgs that support the homeless want to keep the homeless in the city so their commute isn't horrible. These volunteers or professional NGOs should place people out there with the homeless to serve them and get them ready to be reintegrated into society.
Damm that looks like the “houses” or shacks in the old black and white movie The Grapes of Wrath.
And probably only illegals will be admitted.
The problem is that homelessness is a symptom of the bigger challenge, which is that these people won’t or can’t follow rules natural to civilized folks. Unfortunately this merely pools the pathologies of that culture and seems like a “cute” version of Cabrini Green with the same future destiny.
