One Man’s Wrecked Home Is Another Man’s Castle!

Here is a form of post-disaster housing that I do not recall seeing before.  From the UK’s Daily Mail, see: From poverty to the penthouse: Homeless who are living like kings in mansions and hotels abandoned since Christchurch earthquake

  • Homeless have taken up residency in Christchurch’s abandoned buildings
  • The buildings were severely damaged during the 2011 earthquake
    Men previously slept on the street but say they became ‘rich overnight’
  • Living arrangements were filmed for Loading Docs film Living Like Kings

Quite a story — price is right for the new occupants!
