Thanks to Paul Spanswick, VT Consultant, for this great picture of a re-purposed escalator. 

Paul posted: β€œThe meeting point for my volunteering work this morning was an abandoned Debenhams store in the centre of Bristol, which had been converted into an indoor skate park. 

I thought this was an innovative way of integrating an old escalator into the fabric of the skate park and to remember the origins of the building.”

Paul asked - outside of its intended purpose, what's the most imaginative use of VT you have seen?

We would LOVE to get your photos here at LIN!
