the tent seems a little too flimsy for a semi-permanent installation like what you're suggesting. I feel like something like an awning or open air shed would do better for durability? for a big tent, my concern would be it collapsing randomly or getting hit with gusts of wind. tent lifespans are usually meant to last like 50-150 days out so you might be asking too much of it.

Tents have lifespans that short?

Do homeless people just keep getting new tents all the time?

Kinda makes sense, Tp4's grill cover, every 1.5 years, pretty much gotta get a new one.

It's the UV that really chews them up.
Shade is better for that but then you get mildew problems ....
"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.
