No. 627 Tor / Thu Feb 03, 2000
Taket over bussterminalen på Flotmyr, har høstet svært forskjelligartede reaksjoner - fra lovord til kritikk og hoderysting. Men ideen med å skape denne "skulpturen" av et nyttebygg, har noe haugesundsk over seg. Taket er nemlig utformet som en måkevinge, når vi bare seg den fra riktig vinkel.  Og måken er en velkjent fugl i vårt distrikt - selveste byfuglen vår!

English:
The roof contruction over our central bus terminal on Flotmyr har been praised and criticized. But - it is meant to be a sculpture building with roots in something real Haugesund connected. Actually - if you watch the roof construction from the right angle - it looks just like a seagull's wing. And - that bird is very special for Haugesund - it is our "national" bird!

Under en måkevinge, satt jenta og venta på buss
The girl sat under a seagull's wing - waiting for her bus

Ingen tvil om at dette er en måkevinge
No doubt: this is a seagull's wing
