Jarvis Smells Like Piss
October 6, 2007
It’s a well known fact that Jarvis,
the stop before the end of the line (at Howard),
is where the homeless, who are living on the trains,
get off to urinate, deficate, vomit, and exit the train to avoid getting busted for loitering at Howard.
(Above), an orange traffic cone is placed near a puddle of urine, to alert the community of the “slip hazard”.
(Below) Here is the stairway to the elevated platform of the Jarvis Red Line.
The stairs are where the smell is the most vile.
This is because urine drips on them from the platform above, where the homeless relieve themselves.
(Below) Someone was kind enough to lodge a urinal cake into the wall near where the urine flows onto the stairs.
Jarvis station smells like piss because it is used as a bathroom every day.

Firefighters do check up on retirement homes, hospitals, and other group homes during the power outage.
Only the moon, and the lights of emergency vehicles,
light early morning Rogers Park during the outage.
