Anti-homeless architecture is meant to encourage homeless people to actually go to homeless shelters

Umm no… anti-homeless architecture isn’t meant to encourage people to go to homeless shelters, it’s meant to make it inconvenient to be homeless where “rich people” might have to see and acknowledge you. Its goal is to make the problem easier to ignore not drive people to get help.

Careful I hear the guy who lives there is known for not paying his contractors.
