When I was in Mesa last weekend, I found this bus stop shelter right in front of the high-rise building I featured yesterday. This has to be one of the most elaborate bus shelter I've spotted around the valley.
I found out it was designed by Joe Tyler and placed there in 2002. The design consists of a dome supported by artificial palm trees. Perhaps the artist was inspired by all the palm trees that surround the building.
Hi Sharon! What a fantastic bus shelter! Brilliant design for the area!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I love it when sculptural forms can be integrated into a structure with practical purpose.
ReplyDeleteMade me smile Sharon :) what a fantastical construction! Got to love the quirky touch of the weather vane :)
ReplyDeleteWaiting for a bus
ReplyDeleteis a pain in the rear
but a cozy little shelter
makes the pain less severe.
It sure is a lot nicer than those that we have.
ReplyDeleteCompared to shelters here this one is pretty darn classy. I can hardly wait to see the buses.
ReplyDeleteThat is very elaborate!
ReplyDeleteThat has to be the fanciest bus shelter ever, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteVery fancy! Nothing like that around here, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteI think that must be one of the prettiest bus shelters I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that cool! Haven't seen one like that before.
ReplyDeleteProbably the most stylish bus stop I have ever seen.
