Mike, Alex, and I passed by here last month and I noticed a few ESD trucks parked in the back of the lot. Today we passed by and saw it was a little recycling center open to the public. So we went in to see some of the trucks and it turns out they're converting these ESD trucks into roll offs.
A copper wire choker that has been textured with homemade punches, suspends the wrapped cones of reclaimed tin. A pleasing sound comes from the cones tapping together when the piece is worn.

The Park & Tilford Gardens is a 1.5-acre (6,100 m2) (originally 3-acre (12,000 m2)) botanic garden situated in the City of North Vancouver, British Columbia. The complex, established in 1969 as a community project of Canadian Park & Tilford Distilleries Ltd., consists of eight separate but interconnected areas. The original gardens were designed by Harry J. Webb of Justice & Webb Landscape Architects.

Whoever had owned this cart, had the idea of throwing in branches, thinking they were recyclable. Well an eagle-eyed driver had spotted them and had tagged the cart.
I've been noticing a trend of people thinking that yard waste is recyclable (I believe from the perception that paper originated from trees), people either not caring, or people just being poorly educated. While I was walking, I saw literally a brand new Edge, and it was already REALLY dirty because an idiot threw in milk tea and coffee inside.
As a matter of fact, the day before, I was driving by a Tuesday service area. On just one street alone, I saw six carts tagged, and collection refused, not including the other streets.

I remember when I first started at New Mexico State University in 1995 seeing the Roadrunner at its original home at the city dump. We used it as a landmark while dove hunting.
I didn't know it had been rebuilt several times over the years.
A sadly common sight on the streets of Hong Kong; elderly people pushing around trolleys piled with cardboard for recycling, to make a little bit of money.
This timber timber structure, perched comfortably above the highest flood levels at Cuttagee Lake, NSW Far South Coast, has been a lakeside feature for several years.

A view of the Colosseum almost by evening.
The shadows were gathering fast; the crowd of tourists was as noisy as ever and I was trying to take a meaningful capture of the amphitheater- something different from the usual, something telling at least a part of the story of the place; something which was not too similar to a messy, unwilled group shot.
The paragraph of the story of the Colosseum I have chosen is interesting - the shot... well, I hope it is worth the effort.
The fact leaves me gaping every time I think about it: for centuries the inhabitants of Rome (and the Popes as well) has been using the Colosseum as a travertine quarry at their fingertips. They took away stone upon stone from the amphitheater, to reuse them in the construction of other buildings.
In our modern times we stress a lot the issue of recycling, but our sense of history makes us preserving historical heritage, while recycling our contemporary waste. However, so much of what we build and produce - even our architecture - will not be so long-lasting to be part of the history of our posterity :-(.

Some structures used for one theme lend themselves to be recycled/reused/repurposed for other themes/scenes. Why waste a good structure when it can be utilized for another scene?
What actually happens with the initial scene/diorama is that pieces get raided out when needed for newer builds. In this case the basic structure slowly got deconstructed in a couple of stages which lent it to be used for post-apocalyptic scenes...
