Bolts on Volunteer Park Water Tower??

[Jim]

My gym partner bailed this evening so on the ride home I stopped for a couple laps of the tower in Volunteer Park. I hadn't been there for a year or so and was surprised to find five bolts scattered around about seven feet off the deck. WTF?

 

This is a historic structure in a city park. The Park's folks are not too crazy about the accumulated chalk dust but manage to shrug it off - this will make them cough up a hairball. Seriously, what is the point? I was here? Please, go practice on the I-5 underpass or some other out of the way structure instead.
