Two of the largest homeless shelters in San Diego, Golden Hall and Paul Mirabile Center, are set to close in December. The temporary permit for Golden Hall expired. And the Paul Mirabile Center will be redeveloped to help people with substance abuse issues. The city will lose more than 600 beds. Rickey Edwards is worried his brother will be displaced.“He doesn’t know where he’s going to end up when golden hall closes?”“No,” Edwards said.
“I told them they're laying out some more tents, he might be going there,” Edwards said.“Do you think he would prefer where you're staying? The safe sleeping sight?”“Ya, it’s comfortable just like going camping,' Edwards said. 'Just everyday.”But there’s still a long way to go.“It’s a disaster, we’re killing people faster than ever because of the rent affordability crisis,” said John Brady, a Homeless advocate.Brady says hundreds of people are on waiting lists for shelter beds.
