LOVELAND, Colo. — The South Railroad Facility will no longer be supporting dozens of people a night in Loveland, as the overnight shelter will be closing down this week.
The City of Loveland said the South Railroad Facility opened in 2023 as a temporary overnight shelter and was 'funded with one-time dollars that are now exhausted,' and the city has faced 'service-level reductions to ensure a balanced General Fund .'
William Kennedy has stayed at the South Railroad Facility off and on since last October. He explained that this overnight shelter offers showers, restrooms and beds, making it a desirable option compared to sleeping outdoors.
