A new tiny house village will provide shelter for an estimated 60 people who have been living outdoors in Rainier Beach and South Seattle.
A grand opening celebration for Southend Village, located at 9101 Martin Luther King Jr. Way S, is being held Thursday, with speakers, tours and refreshments.
The village has 40 tiny houses. The 8′ x 12′ dwellings are fully furnished with heat, insulation and locking doors for families, couples, individuals and people with pets who are without homes. The new tiny home community is staffed around the clock and includes bathrooms, showers, laundry and kitchen facilities and shared gathering spaces. There are also offices for case managers and security.
The village has one entrance and an emergency exit, and is surrounded by a cedar fence to keep residents safe. On-site case managers will be available to help occupants find permanent housing, jobs, health care, identification and services.
