What to do with empty shops and used gum (part 2)

 
Seattle is a wonderful place. I've been there before, but only for a few hours.

   

There was this building was I was quite taken by. It gives the impression of being so precarious.

 
It isn't. Obviously.

And then there's this wall of gum.

 
Actually called Gum Wall it's apparently the 2nd germiest tourist attraction in the world, the Blarney Stone was the winner.

I was strangely attracted to it. It was the colours. Designers can see past all those germs if you have colours like these.

If you think that's a lot of bubble gum, you should check out Bubble Gum Alley in San Luis Obispo CA. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubblegum_Alley) It's an entire alley covered in Bubble gum. In some places it goes as high as 18 feet!

Interesting...I've been to Seattle quite often in the past year, and never really realized that Gum Wall existed. I gotta keep an eye out for it next time I go.
