And readers from the neighbor our reporting in via the comments...
This is a great site! I tried 311 and looked all over nyc.gov and your site is the only place I could find information on what was happening with the water pressure in the East Village. Thanks for being awesome!
ReplyDeleteWe have water on 9th St. bet. 1st and A...hope this is solved soon for everyone without!
ReplyDeleteNo water here on 1ST Ave between 1st + 2nd Sts
ReplyDeleteI am on 12th and Avenue A, and I have water. At least I do right now!
ReplyDeleteI'll take "Posts You Least Want To Read While Your Scalp Is Burning From a Copious Application of Bleach," Alex!
ReplyDeleteTHANK GOD I just learned we have water (tho very little pressure) at E 3rd St and 1st Ave. Or that could have been a scene from a really shitty Katherine Heigl movie.
WWTSD? (what would Tish & Snooky do?) Seriously, I thought i was gonna have a heart attack.
Now typing with soothing Manic Panic Virgin Snow on my head, I am, as ever, yr faithful correspondent, etc.
water was brown this morning
ReplyDeletenow it's pretty clear but the pressure rises and falls
we do have water on 10th street 1-2
This is according to Gothamist: "As for water issues in lower Manhattan, they say that "everybody has water. We did shut down the water to stop the flooding. You may be experiencing low water pressure but it should be coming back now." "
ReplyDelete3rd st and 2nd ave, had really low pressure/trickle about 10:30-11 am. all's well now at 1pm.
ReplyDeletethanks for the story, i was going to report the landlord.
without water a restaurant has to close, I wonder how many actually did - BL
ReplyDeleteHad low water pressure in the shower. Wondered why.
ReplyDeletei still have no water. 1st +1st.
ReplyDeleteNo water downtown on William Street - wtf?
ReplyDeleteNo info on 311 or nyc.gov - how can a break in the Flatiron District be impacting us downtown? #annoyed
Still no water in the Washington Square Park area as of 3:00 PM. Agreed with the other comments that you're awesome! It's unbelievable that official city channels as well as large scale news sites don't have more accurate updates on this; at least those who know this blog know where to turn for the real info.
ReplyDelete1st + 1st here: we have water!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow i can do the dishes.....yipeeeeeeeee
SO glad I left town this weekend.
ReplyDeleteNo water at Whole Foods at Bowery and Houston and the Chinatown YMCA this afternoon. The swimming pool was still full, though.
ReplyDeleteno water on division street. anybody got any idea what's going on? is it really only one pipe supplying all the water downtown?
ReplyDeleteAs of 7:30, still no water in my building. I understand these things take time; I wouldn't mind so much if we were getting any information at all from the city or the news media.
ReplyDeleteDid a Google search on what's going on with the lack of water in my building and came up with this site. Pretty cool. We're not back to normal yet (West Village), so no use of shower, etc.
ReplyDeleteCan't wash the piss and shit off from the night before. Guess I gotta move.
