What is Piss Mote?
1.
A moat of urine created by the homeless that created a physical and psychological barrier when entering a space. Individuals a generally deterred from patronizing locations surrounded by a piss mote for a plethora of reasons. Perhaps the actual barrier is unattractive, the smell may disincentive entry. Perhaps the 500 homeless men who created the mote in the first place are still there. A piss mote is a symbol of an area’s decline coupled with the lack of proper rest room facilities.
