The world is littered with fake empty buildings used to obscure phone line junctions and internet provider stuff.
Almost every neighbourhood has one. But they look like normal houses, so you can never tell unless you know where to look for.
What do you look for?
Here's one on Google maps https://maps.app.goo.gl/55qqbQRYY7abKPVy9 I drove past this for years without thinking about it until one day I drove under it.
Now that I know what it is, it's pretty obvious, but how often does the average person really inspect houses as they drive by?
Edit: maps links suck, 3911 Frances St, Burnaby, BC V5C 2P4
Haha I love how it has four reviews/3.3 stars
That one's pretty obvious though. It's got no windows nor doors, and like 8 condensor units out back.
I bet there are ones that are less obvious
There are other ones, this is just the obvious one. I've only spotted one other in the wild and I forget where it was.
