Siena Francis is building 50 tiny houses, about 275 square feet each, near the group's downtown shelter. The houses are designed to provide the next step for people who formerly were homeless.
Omaha's latest gated community will be like no other the city has seen. The Cottages comprises 50 tiny homes that will put roofs over the heads of disabled people who have experienced chronic homelessness.
Darin Smith and Mindy Crook stand beside the kitchen, complete with efficiency-size appliances, in a 250-square-foot house at The Cottages. They, along with Dustin Crook, are the owners of Arch Icon, which developed and built the houses for Siena Francis House.Â
The 50 tiny homes in The Cottages are arranged in groups beside curving sidewalks on 2 acres of land near the Siena Francis House near downtown Omaha. People are to begin moving in Nov. 1.
