Story
Hope on Hyde Park utilizes purpose built shipping containers in order to create a modern and affordable transitional housing community for the Los Angeles homeless population. The building is constructed around a central courtyard, providing privacy, safety and a deepened sense of community. Parking spaces are provided for social services staff while each resident has a bike- storage space. The five-story Hope on Hyde Park offers studios and one-bedroom apartments on a 0.49-acre site. Residential services and a boxing gym are located on the ground floor. Floor to ceiling glazing along the amenity space engages the community and brings movement to the street.
