A steamy situation on 10th and B

The FDNY has paid two visits to 10th Street and Avenue B this morning. 

The firefighters arrived around 7:15 after a report of a possible fire in the curbside dining structure at Soda Club. However, we're told there wasn't actually any fire. 

An EVG reader who shared these photos reported that the FDNY returned around 8:50 as residents spotted steam coming up from below the structure. The firefighters (and likely some Con Ed folks are on the way) are now focusing on a wider swath of Avenue B and 10th Street.

Does anyone know why Con Rd is working on steam pipes on E 10th St on Avenues A, B, & C over and over again? It never seems truly fixed.

As of 11PM it is still steaming under the shed, and out of 3 other manholes at the intersection.

I thought sheds could not be built over manhole covers?
