SOUTH TUCSON , Ariz. — By the end of the year, two historic, adjacent motels are set to help fill the need for affordable housing in South Tucson .
The nonprofit has announced it's goals to acquire properties to change the narrative of affordable housing, which the workers are hoping to demonstrate when the Arizona Motel is ready to open. “We make sure we're all safe, we make sure it's clean, we make sure it's neat, we make sure it's fun for the kids, and we make sure we all eat. We're all out here eating together, cooking with each other, laughing, playing,” said Ashleigh Clark, a member of the Arizona Motel community.
The Paradise Motel was also recently purchased by an agency centered in South Tucson. The Primavera Foundation bought the motel in April. When it's ready to open it's doors to the public, which isn't expected for another six months, it will provide short-term stays.
