Not really, but almost. Daytona Beach is considering building a whole village just for homeless people, 2,500 of ’em. Here’s what the developer said about it:
“This is for the people who can’t work and can’t integrate themselves into society. The answer is not to build a Hooverville of tents and trailers but to make these buildings attractive enough so that if you or I would went there, we would say, ‘Wow, I’d live there.'”
But some people aren’t so enthusiastic:
Critics worry that the Tiger Bay Village will only promote homelessness and that the population will relocate to rural areas.
Ya think?!
