THE ASK
Grappling with extreme summer temperatures regularly exceeding 110°F, the City of Phoenix recognized the urgent need to establish a site that would provide shelter and essential services for individuals experiencing homelessness. City officials sought a fast, cost-effective and durable building solution that could offer relief from the intense heat while serving as a dedicated hub for delivering vital support to some of Phoenix’s most vulnerable residents.
