In a bid to get rid of stopgap measures like the chairs for good, Zordel is pitching a first-of-its-kind $20 million plan to convert a Lower Nob Hill hostel into a 120-room women’s center with counseling, yoga and new drop-in showers, emergency beds and health services. Whether it works will test not just the pandemic’s lasting impact on a tattered social safety net, but also the city’s willingness to confront stark underlying issues like street violence, trauma and rising homeless deaths.
