Like many other large cities, Tokyo, Japan, has a sizable homeless population. There’s something different about the homeless in Tokyo, though, especially those living in Shinjuku Station. Instead of living with messy bags and shopping carts in tow, this group of homeless people decided to do something a little different.
They don’t bother passers by and they don’t create a mess. The people who live in the station have an organized little community… of cardboard homes.

What the homeless are doing in the train station is quite incredible; they were able to build a community with little or no possessions. To learn more about the box men of Shinjuku Station, visit Michael Wolf’s site. Otherwise, share this with others.
