is in the process of relocating people who sleep at People’s Park to transitional housing at a hotel in Berkeley. UC Berkeley is planning to build more than 1,000 units of student housing at People’s Park."We are going to be occupying until we achieve victory," said Nicholas Alexander, an activist who is also a Berkeley alumnus. "Until the University decides to build on the many other spaces that are readily available to be built upon.
Kyle Gibson, the Director of Communications for UC Berkeley Capital Strategies said "We have a supportive housing environment that’s going to include services including housing navigation counseling and medical services as well as a more safe and stable place for these individuals to sleep when they’re on they are on a pathway to more permanent housing."
but what about people's park? it's history!
People’s park belongs to people not Berkeley!
Isn't that ironic...
