Ok, I’ll ask, why?

The price tag. The lack of shelter for homeless. The look. I guess everything about them. I like ‘em though.

May I ask….what is it?
Comment by Norcross — November 13, 2007 #
It’s a bus stop/shelter. And I like ‘em too.

Perhaps the lack of shelter helped lower the price tag? It does seem a bit odd though, isn’t the whole point of building a structure in the first place to provide some type of shelter? I’m sure a sign could have marked the location just as well…

@ Norcross - Ingrid is right; it is a bus stop
@ Milena - I think they cost $70K, but they’re not done yet. They’ll put actual shelter on it. They’re still under construction. But the thought of this type shelter without any real shelter made me laugh
