Gas Line Repairs by Amalgamated Houses

  Gouverneur Avenue was closed  Thursday, and Con Edison crews were working feverishly at the corner with Van Cortlandt Park South to replace an old rotting gas pipe. One could smell the odor of gas slightly for about a half  block radius of where the work was going on. 

  An unidentified Con Edison worker said that the old rotting metal gas pipe was being replaced by a new plastic one. You can see in the pictures below the old rotting metal pipe that was taken up by Con Edison workers, and them holding the new plastic pipe.
