Hi everyone, my name is Cheveyo De Freitas. For my walking research on this project I decided to walk around the Jamaica Redemption Center, an area I don't go often that is around my house.

# data[].attributes.body
It's origins and what year it was built are unclear; but the purpose is clear. It's purpose to collect any bottles; ranging from soda cans, glass bottles, and water bottles. I will explain how the collecting process works.

# data[].attributes.body
The customer brings in the bottles, and a worker will empty the bag on the conveyor. The bottles will then enter the bag. Once the bag is full of bottles. Another worker will take bag off the hooks and move it elsehwere, and replace it with a new bag. Every bottle is 5 cents, so after counting is done, you get paid based on how much bottles was counted.

What makes this space distinct from others is navigating around the bottles. Since there are usually multiple people waiting on line for their bottles to be collected, and bags full of bottles on the side, other people have to either cross the street, move around the bottles, or tell people ."excuse me". In this space, these actions are more common than on most streets.

Something I might have overlooked is teamwork in this area. Not only do the workers work as a team in terms of who puts the bottles on the conveyor, and who takes the bags out, but also people on the line. If an elderly person, for example, is carrying some bottles, I see people helping them carry their bottle bags to move up the line or help them pick up a bottle in case it falls of the conveyor. I don't really have anything I am curious about since this area is straightforward as is.

The rules are to just be respectful since everyone lining up at this place is here for a reason. People walking on the street know why the line is there, so by respectfully passing by the people on line and being polite can overall improve everyone's day.

# data[].attributes.body
This space promotes social interactions due to it being a line. Because it takes a while for a person to empty all of their bottles, it can encourage others to start conversation and interact while waiting on people to be finished. It could discourage people though, especially in the summertime when it is really hot, flies are buzzing, and the smell is even worse.

The history of this space contributes to the atmosphere because due to the nature of it being a bottle redemption center, the smell is pretty bad. However its purpose has never changed and it most likely will never change.
