A new homeless facility is being built in downtown LA, near the El Pueblo historic site. The city is putting trailers in a parking lot there to provide short-term stays. It’s a test model for the whole city, and it was supposed to be up and running by now. But there are delays and unhappy business owners in the area.
Merchants are unhappy about the mayor's plan to house the homeless near Olvera Street
