Ooooh, ONE bus stop, out of 8,000!

Can you figure that out in a percentage, Jason Know-It-All McHuff?

(Not to mention that ONE bus stop was installed by the city of Hillsboro and not TriMet, and serves a low ridership route...)

Is that a mailbox attached to it?
That's someones personal private property!

I'll bet ya a school bus also stops here so someone built this little shelter for their child.
It actually has nothing to do with the transit bus other than it shares the stop

There's no housing in the area, so probably no school buses.

And, no, that's not a mailbox. If you look at the large version of the photo, you can tell it's an electrical box located back in the grassy area.

And Erik, I've seen other custom shelters at TriMet stops too. Moreover, TriMet does have art on many shelters.

Oh, I dont believe you, show me proof there is no houses there and that's not a mailbox

Al:

It's the Hillsboro library. Here's the google street view.

Al M said...

So wonder boy couldn't say that?
So who built it? Obviously the library or the city.

Just remembering, the company has a art budget of 1mil.
