This post is an update to my post from earlier today. Despite promises of a fix by the evening, it appears city crews were unable to restore water to my street. It also appears they’ve given up for the night.
The scene around the hole in the alley behind my house is all blocked off with barricades, but no crews are nearby.
The hole is partially full of dirty water!
The alley itself is still wet from this morning, and a piece of equipment is still there as you can see in this picture. It’s hard to tell here, but this alley is actually entirely dark at night, so a car driving through here runs a good chance of hitting that equipment. Looks like the city wants a lawsuit!
This situation has now progressed from minor inconvenience and amusement to a major nuisance. I’m curious why there isn’t crews working on this through the night.
