Caveman (Jason Elhers) built a mobile house for the homeless for Live Debris 2009. After building the structure from scavanged materials (the roof is painted plastic containers and tetrapack boxes), he and some friends wheeled it from his studio in NW Portland to the Eastbak Esplanade, where it was tucked away near the Morrison Bridge. The most subtle installation for Live Debris, the installation is intentionally easy to miss but is perhaps most representative of the spirit of Live Debris.

Once homeless himself, Caveman created the homeless house to provide some comfort to the dozens of homeless who attempt to make a home of Portland's Eastbank Esplanade. The regular homeless folks that participated in the event's opening on September 19th helped watch over the exhibition and stayed in the homeless house throughout the week.
