This street's story: 19 city catch basins and 13 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

Standing water is pooling across the entire sidewalk at this location and not draining properly, creating a slipping hazard for pedestrians. The stagnant water suggests a blocked catch basin or storm drain, indicating a potential drainage system failure. The nearby catch basins average 57 years old, which may contribute to the drainage issue.
