Reader Rob D says,
This is a blog entry describing how a homeless man built a shelter on the underside of a working (bascule) drawbridge here in Chicago - complete with electricity & a playstation. The entry has links to other local news sites and their coverage of the incident. As an architect, I am in awe.
Link, and story is also covered in Chicagoist, Link.
