Oh, razor wire. How's that working out?

razor-wire-03While I was up on the MEC rooftop parking lot, photographing the fog bank downtown, I prowled the edges, just to see what I could see. On the East side of the lot, I could look down on the bland roof of the building next door -- ventilators, flat, painted tin -- dull, but surrounded by a quite ferocious amount of concertina razor wire. There were even some vestiges of an older barrier of regular barbed wire. The roof gave no access to the building, so what was the prize being protected? Was it really all just to keep graffiti taggers from getting at an abutting wall on the East side of that roof? If so, they could've saved their money -- welcome mats are cheaper.
