St. Louis officials installed 50 tiny homes this past fall in the former St. Louis RV Park lot. Most have a nearly identical build with a door, window, heater, desk and bed.
Three weeks ago, Shannon Bounds was sleeping in an abandoned warehouse that was partially burned down. Now she and her partner stay in one of the 50 new tiny homes assembled in a former RV park just northwest of downtown St. Louis.
“There s two beds in there for me and my fiance, and then there s a desk and then we got a TV,” she said. “It s kind of like a little cozy home.”
