Thanks for sharing.

The sculptural Vaillancourt Fountain in San Francisco has been called many names and is no longer working or being used by skateboarders. But destroying it, supporters say, would be erasing history and modern architecture, and counter to the city’s reputation for being weird. nyti.ms/3KQVxjc
