As residents move out of Eagle Crest Transitional Housing in downtown Anchorage, the beds will remain empty until the building is renovated in the summer.
The housing opened in 1985 and the interior has not been renovated in over 20 years, said Duke Markham, secretary of the Alaska division of the Salvation Army.
Eagle Crest provides transitional housing at low cost to adults 19 years and older. The facility is alcohol-free and staffed 24 hours a day, according to the program's website. Clients can stay there for up to two years.
