This could be on almost any New York City street, but this huge crater which can bend you rim and flatten your tire, as well as doing more unseen damage to your car has gone unrepaired since at least Friday when it was reported to the city.
Here you can see just how large this crater is as it almost swallows up this tire , but just what damage did this crater do to this car?
Where is this you say?
This crater is on East 210th Street just past the intersection with Rochambeau Avenue at the south entrance to Montefiore Hospital which is in the background. Hospital security said that the crater was called into the DOT on Friday so the city has had notification.
When I e-mailed the Deputy Bronx Commissioner he sent out a crew to inspect the crater, and replied that the DOT notified the DEP since it is around a DEP sewer. He also answered my question as to when it would be fixed that I should ask DEP for the answer.
There was also mention of suing the city for any damage to cars, and that goes through the City Comptrollers office or 311.
