KALAMAZOO, Mich. — Another housing option will be made available for people experiencing homelessness in Kalamazoo this winter.

These pods are designed to meet people's most basic needs. They're waterproofed, lighted, heated, air-conditioned, and equipped with beds and other essentials.

The pods can be assembled by two individuals in less than an hour.
