Once upon a time, there was an open door right where this stern sign now hangs on the wall of the Mustard Seed Street Church, says Leighton. People used to walk in that door and be welcomed in from the cold, and could huddle under the eaves to get out of the rain any time the building was closed. But these are mean times. Outside spaces around virtually every major social service facility in the city now block access to any place where a person could once get out of the weather, with metal fencing, gates, and locked, guarded doors. “It’s illegal, what they do now, what gets taken from us. All the caring is gone,” says Leighton. “It’s got to be illegal to be treating people like this in a non-Third World country.”
