Title:
This old, windowless brick storeroom has been converted - with wood floor, skylight, toilet, shower, plenty of paint - by
an enterprising man into a 14-room dormitory. Every bed was occupied long before the place was complete. The man, unique in
Richmond, is being assisted by the Richmond Shipyards to convert the few other such buildings that are available into sleeping
quarters. But at best, they will accomodate [sic] only a few hundred men.
