Repairs underway on (in?) Tompkins Square Park sinkhole



Workers are at the Eighth Street/Avenue B entrance to Tompkins Square Park ... starting repairs on the sinkhole that has closed this corridor the past three-four weeks...



A worker told EVG correspondent Steven, who took these photos, that he's clearing out the sinkhole for the plumbers to fix the pipe that broke... and some photos of that broken pipe...



No word on when the plumbers might be here.

    Glazed clay? Would love to know how old that pipe is.

    Amazing…I really thought they were just going to leave it until it healed itself.

    Thanks Mr. Orwell.

    Read Murray Rothbard's Power and Market if you want to know why government is corrupt and incompetent. It doesn't matter if it's spraying agent orange to kill and maim or trying to manage a local park.
