Utah homeless vets to get new homes on V.A. campus

New apartments on the V.A. hospital campus will help Utah make a dent in the number of homeless veterans, speakers at a groundbreaking said Tuesday. Valor House, a $4.5 million joint venture of the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City and the George E. Wahlen Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, will be built southwest of the hospital. It will include 72 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, a lounge, an inside recreation area, 12 community kitchens and an outdoor basketball court. Salt Lake Tribune
