Oh hi, there's a hole here


[Last Sunday]

Last Sunday, we noted the sinkhole in the works on Avenue A at East Third Street. It had already eaten a pylon, and was on its way to becoming a rare 5 Pyloner and potential film franchise for Dwayne Johnson.

Anyway, EVG reader John Iz shared these photos showing the developments here this past week... and the DOT's various attempts to warn vehicular traffic of the hole in the Avenue...

Tuesday!



Wednesday!



Thursday!



Friday! (Yesterday!)



What else might the DOT place here to warn motorists of the sinkhole?

Updated:

John shared photos from the hole from Saturday...



...with bonus shot of the can of spray paint used to mark the perimeter...

Strong start for sinkhole season; more pylons on the way



This one is developing quickly on Avenue A at East Third Street... Also: pylon down. Repeat, pylon down.

Anyway, not to play favorites, but I think I prefer the sinkhole that's on First Avenue and Seventh Street a little more. For starters, that one has better effects, like smoke/steam/CHUD.
