Each will be 1, square feet in size with four one-bedroom apartments of the same size, and hardiplank siding. The design is meant to resemble a single-family home. The Quail Trail plan includes two community buildings. One will have community meeting spaces and areas for case managers, healthcare, and social services professionals to work with the tenants. The site plan includes ample green spaces with newly planted trees and full fencing, to provide a sense security for residents.
The Quail Trail project brought together numerous people and organizations that have histories of interest in addressing homelessness in Fort Worth. Brewer, for one, has owned property in the heart of the East Lancaster Street homeless corridor just outside of downtown. In , she bought a number of properties on Race Street. The Palm Tree has generated a robust base of data on tenant longevity and turnover, and where tenants go when they leave Palm Tree, numbers built into the Quail Trail assumptions.
The foundation could easily sell the Palm Tree, but Brewer wants to be part of the solution. In early , it led the formation of New Leaf, creating a important nonprofit vehicle for the raising of money, and owning and running the complex. Gideon and Purvis had become interested in housing and already been contacted by Perez, who also connected them with Brewer. The two began hunting sites two years ago and found the Quali Trail site after three to four months of searching; New Leaf purchased it a year ago.
Gideon, a member of the Meadowbrook-Poly United Methodist Church in east Fort Worth, started looking into solutions for homelessness when he was tipped to a building near the church by a minister. The church is a short distance from East Lancaster. Gideon and Purvis also are at the good points personally. Nine years ago, Gideon underwent a successful double-lung transplant.
