I have noticed at least 2 different bums camping out on one side of the center area. Their "village" seems to require them to defecate at one end and sleep/eat at the other. Passing water can be done only on the benches that are "cupped" thus keeping interlopers from sitting too close. Who am I to criticize alternative social norms.<br>Anyway the point is I think we'll discover why that arch was originally closed up. the novelty has worn off and Winter is approaching.<br>Sincerely,<br>loose stool<br> With apologies to whomever but I think “history is repeating itself”, under the arch.
