Editor:
I could not agree more with letter writer Andrew Goldstein: those new bus stop "amenities" are clearly designed to discourage the homeless from lingering at a bus stop ("Not a good look for BBB," Letter to the Editor, June 6). And the "shelter" thing is a total joke. It's obvious that whoever designed these new stops does not depend on public transportation. And I see that bus schedules are no longer available at bus stops; one must have a smart phone to see a schedule now. Did they "focus group" this thing before implementing it? I doubt it. What a waste of public money.
