[QUOTE]An artist in Providence, Rhode Island was apprehended the other day by mall security as he left the secret apartment he’d built almost four years ago, in an unused utility space in the mall’s parking garage.

As a dude with a huge appreciation for architectural art, I've always been pretty fascinated by the idea of converting industrial or commercial buildings into cool, unique living spaces. This story sparks my imagination. It's too bad they vacated the Guy, but I guess they had no other choice!

That's pretty damn cool.
