This street's story: 19 city catch basins and 15 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 linear crack in the asphalt contains standing water with algae growth and stagnant debris, indicating the nearby storm drain system is blocked or malfunctioning and unable to drain water from the surface. The pooled water creates a tripping hazard and allows water infiltration that could weaken the pavement structure.
