Not sure. Look too nice and have too much space between them unless they are for some managers.
Could be a company that cares. :D

For the view?

To spot the revenuers coming into the valley?

To observe and document the great oyster migration of "08?

To keep an eye open onto the actions of all of the neighbors?
