Man builds elaborate homeless encampment on Hollywood sidewalk

[lorainefrancesv]

He wants an RV, not a cracked out shelter.

[Abcdefghijk]

Just goes to show how close many people are to homelessness.

There’s empty unused lots everywhere in general. Unused land and property. Maybe if there’s designated areas for people to build, it’ll be fine. They can thrive.

I mean the city doesn’t just bulldoze random aging uninhabited properties don’t they? But they force homeless to be perpetual nomads.

I really hope someone hires him.

[stephanieshaffer]

You know that they're ready to shut him down.

[RosaMartinez-beqq]

The World wasn’t prepared for a Pandemic. It changed a lot of peoples lives. I hope that he gets back on his feet.

If he lost a construction job during COVID - why can't y'all hook a brother up with a construction job, there is ALL KINDS of construction going on in Los Angeles - ALL OF THE TIME!!!

This man is setting a trend for homeless peace give this man a check

[leoniedawes]

Leave him alone unless you have a better place for him to not a bother to anyone!

[jlot]

I make good money can’t afford a house and if I attempted this the city would help themselves to my money thru fines and jail time

[lyricjackson]

I would pay him to build me something like this

[dakmycat]

Just keep your yard clean Respect those around you. You ok

God Bless this man. I hope he can get some help... he's just an honest good man out of work! I hope he gets his RV... ❤️

As long as you keep this homeless man in the news he will continue to grow his life on the Hollywood sidewalks.

Cool house. And the guy sounds like he could be working and earning a living. His choice. But the fact that the store owners don't mind a makeshift house blocking them is mind blowing. Gee, I wonder why sales are down?

[alexrodgers]

What gets me is that California has some insane building regs, permits, inspections for home owners. But here? Nada!

When I win the POWERBALL this Saturday night I will look for this man and buy him that RV he desires. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[retaosooo]

0 problem until many start building tax free homes .we can't even do that in the woods anymore

[critters]

I hope and pray, that this man gets his desired RV & construction job very soon 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Dude don't need a house he just needs some land clearly.

Someone has to stop the contamination caused by his generator. It's outrageous.
