Tiny homes may be solution for Southern Nevada homeless

From the rear, the steel shipping container looks no different than the countless number traveling inside cargo holds across the world’s oceans. “I call it the not-so-tiny tiny home,” creator Arnold Stalk said. “You could put 100 of these on three-and-half, four acres in a community.” Stalk, founder of the Veterans Village housing complex in downtown Las Vegas, plans to start building 10 more of the shipping container homes on Monday. Stalk said he will lease the units to low-income veterans at his complex on 21st Street for no more than $650 a month, utilities included. Homeless advocates say Stalk’s initiative marks an important milestone for Southern Nevada.
