The little Hungarian town I live in Diósd, has one. It's on a tiny street (most are in the town I guess) and a bit out of the way, I'd love to know how frequently it's used. I've never seen one in the US but it strikes me as a great idea. I think more than just the purpose it fills on its own, it's part of a larger set of community resources that make this a nicer place to live. There are places to get and deposit bags for picking up dog poop. There are cute signs that go with them. There are signs made by local school kids about slowing down around crosswalks, and flags for them to carry as they cross the street - so they are more visible. (There aren't too many of those as most streets in town are really small as I've said.) We're a near suburb of Budapest and probably on the upper end of the socio-economic scale but I still think it brings up some great ideas of how to build a great community.
