Government planter with brutalism, vines, and mess, outside a county sheriff's office complex in the U.S.

I get sentimental feelings about this kind of architectural environment, but only on weekends and holidays, when the area isn't swarming with authoritarian/corrupt sheriff's office employees and their unfortunate victims.

-----------------------

In downtown Columbus, Ohio, on November 26th, 2017, in Dorrian Commons Park off the southeast corner of East Mound Street and South High Street, outside the James A. Karnes Building, part of the Franklin County Government Center.

The brutalism in the background is a county-owned parking ramp at 34 E. Fulton St., built in 1978 according to the website of the Franklin County Auditor.
