if someone holds the door open for someone else they could easily trip on the spikes. The door on the right won't open as fully as it could have before the spikes.

Also, 2 folded down cardboard boxes should cover those spikes nicely and the spikes will keep the boxes from moving.

The 1% of this planet are total and complete scumbags

Lovely.

What if a resident falls and lands on those spikes?

just a careless step and you'd be spiked, or a toddler stumbling .... I'd like to see the health & safety case about it, along with the opinion of their public liability insurers, assuming they ran it by them.

I suspect there'll be a covert campaign to "disable" these measures, along with any public campaign.

I get it, the homeless need someplace to go ... somewhere to lay their head.

However, if I am going to check my mail in my condo's mail center and there is someone sleeping there I am pretty sure I am going to complain to management that I had to step over someone to get to my mail slot. And they would make it so no one could sleep there.

That looks like an entry keypad to the right of the door. Should I have to worry about stepping on someone's head as I try to get into my home? Should any visitors I have be panhandled at my front door?

I am sure many of you here have homes, how many homeless people sleep on your patio every night? Just because some people choose to live in multi-family housing units does not mean they should have to allow homeless people to sleep at their front door.
