I’ve written many stories about the homeless hotel where I live, Fusion Studios. But I don’t often get the chance to write about good things happening at Fusion. This week the tenants expressed pride and surprise when they awoke Monday to lobby furniture for the first and second floors. There also is some really tasteful artwork for the walls.

Fusion homeless hotel in Denver sports lobby makeover

I’m sure people wonder why anyone would want to live in a street encampment. It’s filthy, noisy, drug-ridden, and dangerous. Right?. It’s not always that way. I lived in an encampment directly across the street from the Salvation Army Crossroads homeless shelter. I was banned from the shelter for 30 days for smoking my medical cannabis outside, which I did not know was forbidden. That didn’t seem possible based on alll the other people who did it and never got into trouble. When I got thrown out of Crossroads, I went outside and never went back inside. That is, until the police arrested me, and I ended up at Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo, and then later, Fusion Studios, where I live now.

Biologist Ben Wise received the first feedground reports of lethargic elk calves on Feb. 25. He had a hunch about what was coming. As the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s disease biologist for the Jackson Region, Wise has been around long enough to know what was likely about to happen . Hoof rot. And death.

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston was clear Saturday when someone asked during a House1000 town hall meeting what will happen to those who say no to free housing. He said taking 1,000 people off the streets who accept an offer of free housing “allows us to focus much more rigorously on the enforcement of those who don’t (want the housing).” He said those in the grips of addiction will be offered “outpatient treatment and if not, we will get you inpatient treatment.” Johnston made his remarks during a town hall meeting at Evans School in Golden Triangle. The forum answered questions from neighbors of proposed micro community sites at 1199 N. Bannock and 1375 N. Elati.
