Originally opened as a "waiting space" for homeless men, the Secure Waiting Space is a Hennepin County funded overflow shelter operated by Catholic Charities. It is located at 1000 Currie Avenue North, Minneapolis, MN 55403.
It houses around 150-200 men a night. The first floor of the shelter consists of thin mats on a floor, and the second floor is called Pay-for-Stay. Beds are around $4.00 a night, and men must be sober to stay on the second floor.
Shelter workers and case managers refer to Secure Waiting Space as "1000 Currie" or "Secure Waiting," but homeless people almost always call it tramp camp.

Space Chicken -- In the space industry, when multiple teams have to deliver products that hook up together. Everyone is late, but no one admits it waiting for one of the other teams do flinch and take the blame.
Yododyne was taking late on their Oscillator Overthruster development, but suspected that the Flux Capacitor team was also behind schedule, so they said nothing at the meeting with John Bigboote engaging them in a game of Space Chicken!
