Freedom of Speech. Personal Rights. Making a statement. Or that's what he calls it.
Driving down the road through Potsdam, you can't help but notice the public display of urinals, potted toilets, vibrant paint, and a clothesline of female undergarments. Apparently, the man who owns this property was frustrated with the zoning laws that forbid him to build a Dunkin' Donuts on this corner. So instead of subtly receiving the rejected proposal, he decided to have his own little public rebellion...or artistic rebellion if you will. If his goal was getting the town to "finally" notice his lot, he most definitely succeeded.
"Endangered Species"...not sure what that means but hey, it sure does make people stop and wonder, right?
A side view of the lawn with the brightly painted garage in the background.
If you look close enough, you can see the urinal planted right in the middle!
What if everyone responded this way to basic rejection? What an interesting world we would have!
