Found Objects: Metro bench + found object stories and articles

Metrobench

"The man who got the idea, Steve Shaheen, started collecting Metrocards and he realized he could recycle them and give them a noble use, so he glued together about 5,000 such Metro cards and obtained an unusual, yet surprisingly comfortable seating. The name of this unusual piece of “furniture” is the Metrobench and the designer was helped by many people from New York city in his attempt to gather 5,000 Metro cards within a week."
