The Customer Need

The 801 East Men’s Shelter, located on the historic St. Elizabeth’s Hospital campus, was designed to serve a diverse population of men experiencing homelessness in Washington, D.C. The facility offers low-barrier shelter, medical respite care, and support for seniors and working individuals—all under one roof. With a capacity of 365 beds, the shelter required durable, practical, and welcoming furnishings that could withstand constant use while contributing to a sense of safety and dignity for residents accessing critical services.
