Unalaska, AK – A new emergency, short-term housing shelter for men is in the works for Unalaska. The building will be called Alexandria House and will be constructed at the site of the old Elbow Room, across from the courthouse. One of the project's coordinators, Mark Horne, says it's not a homeless shelter. It's a place where men who don't have a place to stay can sleep overnight but during the day, the facility's doors will be shut. Horne says it's a way to help get people back on their feet and find a job, but it won't be a place that gives hand outs or let's people sit around and smoke or drink. He and his partner, John Honan, hope to have the ten to 15 bed facility completed by October of this year. He will not release any financial planning details or other specifics just yet.
