This street's story: 10 city catch basins and 12 manholes serve this block. A blocked catch basin is the usual reason a curb floods like this.

The case we sent

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

A large pool of standing, murky water approximately 3–4 feet in diameter is pooled on the street curb at 18 Caroline Avenue with a dead fish visible, indicating a blocked storm drain or malfunctioning catch basin. The stagnant water creates a public health hazard and slip/fall risk, with deteriorated asphalt and debris surrounding the pool.
