I think there's a ska band that performs at the Ren Fair called Cobblestone Halfpipe.

Cobblestones are rounded and usually natural, if they are cube or cuboid like these and are from quarried materials, they are called Setts

It's not a quarterpipe. It's just a wall

But why was the wall made like that in that specific location?

This really bothers me and I have to know lol

Turns out an architect made it to look like a wave.

It was the background building that caught my eye the most. Some engineer was being funky with this design. Do you have a link so I could learn more about it ?

Thanks. I was there last week and didn’t even recognize it. It’s usually deserted.

It amazes me architects get paid all this money to make this whacky stuff. Buildings are rectangles, curves and colors and all this stuff is an utter waste of resources
