You can just imagine the teens huddled in this iDevice-compatible park shelter listening to music. The shelter has imbedded wireless speakers that work with the iPod, iPhone and iPad. The solar-powered gathering place does not work at night, officials say.

It’s part of a park renovation project in Carterton, Oxfordshire. The £200,000 project (about US$326,000), in part funded by city coffers and in part by grants, will renew the Alvescot Road Recreation Ground.

Aside from offering a spot to sit around and scowl protected from the drizzle, there is also a play area with jungle gyms, swings and a zip-wire.

We weren’t able to find out other details about the shelter, but will update when we do.
