People's Park was a major local landmark with a long history that is well known to students, faculty, residents, and alumni. It had become a home to otherwise homeless people whose existence was inconvenient for the university's expansion plans and an eyesore to arrogant passersby.
The park's history includes both civil and violent disobedience, including against the university itself.
It would not be surprising to hear that, whatever is built on this lot, it is subsequently destroyed by an act of arson or other vandalism.
I am surprised they are taking the risk and making the investment at all. IMO it would have been safer to just buy some of the private properties surrounding the park instead, even at a premium.
A handful of Molotov's at night once a week during construction can make it very expensive to build something.
They're going to molotov concrete and steel?
Cool.
Cool cool cool.
Apparently just a kilogram of sugar mixed into a ton of concrete will destroy the ability of it to actually function correctly as concrete. But I learned this here on Lemmy and have not checked the veracity of it, so take it with a pinch (handful?) of salt.
It's accurate or close to it.. Some concrete truck drivers will keep bottles of coke to pour in there in emergencies where they need to make sure it doesn't set inside the truck.
What happens to the spiked concrete? Can they add something else to counteract the sugar later?
I'm a sweets guys, so I'll take it with a pinch of sugar, thanks.
From what I read you need about 1% of sugar to completely stop the process. Anything below will slow down the process, but it isn't capable of stopping the process.

You figure the cement trucks will pull up to a sugar table so that protesters can add a few bags of sugar to each one? That seems unlikely. It also seems unlikely that anyone could get enough sugar deep enough into any structural element to cause any real damage.
