Every Bus Stop in Surrey, BC

The Georgia Straight's Robin Laurence reviews SGB's magnum opus:

"It's not the banal particulars of the actual bus stops that matter here, but the character of the area in which each is located. Surrey's bus stops range from multilane loops at megamalls to modest markers nearly enveloped in vegetation on narrow country roads. The photos reveal lumberyards and metal fabricators, car dealerships and greenhouses, gas stations and strip malls, bingo halls and churches, office buildings and trailer courts, high schools and flea markets, fast-food restaurants and grassy meadows with mountain vistas. They reveal, too, old houses lushly surrounded by lawns, trees, and shrubs; new houses sitting in fields of dirt; and excavations for newer houses still. There's the occasional pedestrian, bicyclist, or skateboarder, too. Very occasional."
