Photo Essay - Skatepark Wall Building

The building of the $81,900 skatepark wall has begun.

The wall is being built with hopes to keep the sound of the skateboarders from getting out of the park and disturbing the neighbors.

Todd J Grant, Public Works Deputy Director, Saint Augustine, "we hope to finish the project by Christmas, so that the parents and kids can enjoy the park during their time off from school."

After months of neighborhood complaints and court appearances claiming that the city sound ordinance is in violation, a compromise has been reached, at a 12 foot concrete wall.

Workers arrived this morning at nine, November 30th, to begin the building. Today, they are ripping up sidewalks, moving benches and creating a monster wall.

Poor Mans Life, Rich Mans Soul

Jerome, 48, is getting through his life by melting copper and selling it, friends, and surviving "with the help of God."

Jerome stands in his house, containing all he needs to survive. "I made my house out of an old trailer hitch and many 2x4's."

This is Jerome's backyard. He spends a lot of time hanging out here, talking with friends working, and when the time comes, relaxing.

This is the desk where Jerome does all his business. "I am moving things around in my house, so that when it gets cold, I can move my desk inside my house."
