The project in San Jose will convert a 90-unit hotel to interim and ultimately permanent housing for homeless individuals and couples.
The city of San Jose will receive $25.2 million in state funds to purchase the Arena Hotel and convert it into accommodations for people who don't have shelter. Two other projects in the region will receive a total of $37 million from the program.
San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo announced his city's grant in a news release Tuesday, following the governor's announcement earlier in the day of $150 million in awards from the state's Homekey program. The site is located within a half mile of transit, full-scale grocery store, pharmacy, and a health facility.
