This POP seems to be purposely hidden from the public where multiple pilers were blocking its entrance. If one weren’t intentionally trying to find a quiet place to sit, then they most definitely would not cross paths with this POP. With it being towered over by a block full of apartment buildings/housing, it could be easily mistaken as a private location where only residents were allowed. There were multiple signs that said for people to refrain from smoking and eating to create a more friendly environment which is considerate. It was overall clean, with security cameras (providing a sense of safety) and the shrubs seemed to be taken care of which is great. It is very important for POPS to be accessible and welcoming and with this one being hidden, it will ultimately deduct points. It was also super cold today so I wonder if this POP is more popular during the summer.
