From hotel to supportive housing

Date:

The Hancock Administration’s strategy of converting hotel rooms into housing for residents experiencing homelessness took another step forward this week thanks to the approval of $9 million for the acquisition of a four-story hotel. The solution to homelessness is housing, and we will continue to pull on every lever available – including these 95 rooms – to create more supportive homes for our unhoused residents. The acquisition adds momentum to other hotel-to-housing projects recently funded by the City and County of Denver. In recent months Denver helped fund one hotel in Globeville and two East Colfax motels that were acquired by housing partners. The hotel conversions support the Department of Housing Stability’s Five-Year Strategic Plan goal of producing 900 supportive housing units across several sites.
