Today I went to Point Pleasant to check on "The Angelo," and there's been a good deal of progress since my last visit back in July. The siding has been fully installed, and the bright red door adds a nice touch. Volunteers were hard at work on the interior this time around, and I was able to chat a bit with Tom O'Malley, the former Old Bridge Councilman who has been actively promoting Tiny Homes as a solution to homelessness.

Video footage of the house can be found here.
