after a month and a half of squatting under the clark street bridge, we
have created what we call a cardboard mansion. cardboard, palets, lots of
ducked tape matresses and a couch, this place is currently home to about
six (non-addict) people (with room for more)

the police visited today (march11at 4 o'clock) and threatened one of the
occupants to 'beat and drag your asses out of here' if we wern't moved out
by tomorrow(march 12) around the same time

PLEASE come out tonight or tomorrow morning and wait for the police with
us... we dont want to get our'asses beaten' but if we do it would be nice
to have witnesses... this squat is more than a cardboard box under a
bridge! come and see what housing is possible with no money, no welfare
and a whole bunch of dumpster diving and creativity.

PLEASE WE NEED YOUR MORAL AND PHYSICAL SUPPORT!!! THE FIGHT FOR SOCIAL
HOUSING IS A LONG ONE AND THIS IN ANOTHER STEP TOWARDS A SOLUTION.

tomorow we'll post pictures of the mansion and pictures of the bust.
