That large suitcase left by the Mystery Lot

The site of an oversized suitcase here in front of the Mystery Lot on 13th Street the other day left me a little uneasy....



Considering the grisly discoveries in luggage here in the past. I took a closer look... just a stash of damp, moldy clothes...

Also, during the weekend, someone in need put together a temporary shelter here...

I've been living across the street from the mystery lot for a few months and have seen many piles of items left on this stretch of sidewalk. The shelter has been there for a few days now. What are people's feelings about this?

On the one hand I believe that everyone needs a place to live and keep their stuff, but much of this is unusable even to someone who is homeless. The guy even lit a fire under his tarp the other day almost causing the whole thing to go up in flames.
