Hello again, old friend: Sinkhole reforming in Tompkins Square Park

A sinkhole is starting to form again in Tompkins Square Park ... just inside the entrance at Eighth Street and Avenue B, as EVG regular Salim notes with these photos... it has been in the making now for a few weeks, getting larger, hungrier... 
This is at the site of a trashcan-swallowing sinkhole that enthralled the community a few of us during the summer of 2017. That particular in-progress sinkhole kept this entrance closed for nearly two months during that Summer of the Sinkhole.

  8. The problem is a leaking water pipe underground but instead of fixing the pipe they just keep paving over the sinkhole.
