East 10th Street (mini) sinkhole no longer sinking, probably


[Yesterday, start of the journey to the center of the Earth]

Late yesterday afternoon, a local website breathlessly reported on a "sinkhole" opening up on East 10th Street right by the Tompkins Square Library branch…

While we weren't able to swing by for a factual update today (to be honest, it wasn't happy hour) … an EVG reader passed along these photos showing what has happened here between Avenue A and Avenue B …

Later yesterday!







Today!



So all is well… though you may not want to walk on the plate on the street with flip-flops or anything else that easily melts…

    Poor trashcan. Has to go back to being just a regular trashcan. For a while it had a much more important job, and it was glad to do it, I'm sure.

    Right, Anon 10:11; what could be more important than protecting people?
