In a unique display of resourcefulness, homeless individuals in California have constructed a fully-equipped dwelling, complete with rock walls, a garden, a barbecue grill, a hammock, decorative string lights, potted plants, and even functioning electricity. The house is situated on a strip of land sandwiched between a busy freeway and the Arroyo Seco in Los Angeles.

The well-built structure is a stark contrast to other homeless-made shelters along the drainage basin. The video below was captured by Los Angeles news station KTLA.

The number of such encampments has seen a rise in recent years, with approximately 46,000 Los Angeles residents currently experiencing homelessness, according to the station.
