This box deserves swords sticking in it. It reminds me of a medieval torture device.

This is very similar to the devices recently employed in urban areas to keep skateboarders, roller bladers and bmxers from using public space as obsticle courses.

This is absolutely AMAZING! I literally gasped when I saw this site. The loss of public space has never been made so obvious before!

Whoever started this archive of images is fucking brilliant!

Another one in a bank branch next to Harrods in Knightsbridge, London.
