I think we might have seen this one before... or one like it at least. But for those who haven't:

That's absurd. Hope an 18 wheeler doesn't head down that street. That "cantilever" looks a little low.

Wow, lots of strange stuff around there.
Check this mix of old and new out... even a SORS sign! And look how much stuff is on these too!

Those "cantilevers" look to me like a bracket meant for a streetlight. Dang... they must have been low on cash or something and made due with what they could :huh:

Agreed, because looking close at the coloring, the poles they're mounted on appear to be wood.
