This new bandshell is located in the Panhandle Park in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. It was built from structural steel skinned with 65 car hoods scavenged from mid-size sedans. The stage is made from 60 old hollowed-out French doors and reclaimed lumber. A temporary public installation, the Panhandle Bandshell will be in place through the middle of September. It was a collaborative effort of several Bay Area art and design groups, including Rebar, who in 2005 famously converted metered parking spaces into public parks. (photo by Mike Love)
