I've driven to the gates of the Gates Gatehouse. Did that make any sense at all? Lots of ungodly expensive real estate around there. I found a waterfront "park" down a road there that was about the size of two phone booths. Somebody must have donated the land for a "park" and got a huge tax break. It was just big enough for a bench and a sign.
