Steel Bridge homeless camp update, Feb 25


I’ve been occasionally posting the views of the Steel Bridge homeless camp.
My last update was February 3rd; the police told the camp to vacate on Feb 2. They didn’t.

Yesterday morning (Feb 25) the city removed the camp. They took out five dumpsters of garbage and found stolen computer gear. A bunch of bike serials were run through the BikeIndex, one was confirmed as stolen.

Here’s the aftermath of the camp cleanup, a train, and heavy bike commute traffic.
