I think the straw was a truck or van that was parked in that spot... and
the fierce storm - but the time I first saw it only the hole in the
pavement was there and these guys standing around it.
thanks guys

Interesting. A lot of the street substrate must have been washed away. The
sewer probably leaked for decades before the street finally cave-in. Well
recorded by you.

Reminds me of the Frazier episode where they started off bringing in one guy to
fix a small scratch on the hardwood floor and ended up pretty much rewiring and
re-drywalling the whole apartment.
That's quite amazing considering it started with basically a big potholes!
Well captured, Ann.
Cheers,

This excavation in response to the sinkhole was attended to remarkably
quickly, actually. What caused the sink to begin with was a broken
sewage line, I'm told by one of the workmen. In the process of digging
a gas line was ruptured (glad I didnt know that before!) which has been
repaired and the folks on that side of the street are supposed to have
gas service back tonight. The sewage conduit is 100 years old and made
of brick, my source said.
Today was the first time I could see the May Day sign in the same light
as the rest of the scene.
Just a wee bit of photo journalism.
There is a local contract dispute going on at Con Ed... The workers were
locked out by management (sunday ? I think Sunday midnight) and
work is being done by management - I think the guy I talked to today
was a management guy, given the dispute is not settled yet.
