The lot was leveled recently. It's had a fence around it for as long as I've lived here. It was mostly tall grass and garbage until a couple of days ago. It's sandwiched between 4+ lanes of main thoroughfare and a bike path and a ravine with a train running in it. The lot is a triangle with no access other than off the busy street and a quirky, dead end street.

I often think it would make a good lot for a third year architecture studio project with a program of social housing or transitional housing. Or hospice housing. 4 stories of programmed housing space.

The sun is getting low. 2 more months of shorter days. 4 months from the longest day. The light is good, if you can find the light. It beat me home tonight. I could see its back end as it ran away today. Barely.
