New Pothole

It's not always that East Villagers get to witness the birth of a new pothole. Sadly, this is not one of those times either.

It is a pothole in its infancy, though!

I spotted this a couple of weeks ago, outside the beloved San Isidro Y San Leandro Orthodox Catholic Church of the Hispanic Mozarabic Rite, on East 4th Street:

Infant pothole.

Shortly after I took this picture, a bicyclist came down the street and rode right into it, exclaiming an oath for all to hear, as he regained his composure!

You'll be happy to learn I reported this pothole to the good people at 311 — I'll keep you posted on its development!

Step Repair

Maintenance of the East Village is a never-ending struggle — while one part is deteriorating, another is being renovated!

One example of this renovation is the bottom step of the beloved former San Isidro Y San Leandro Orthodox Catholic Church of the Hispanic Mozarabic Rite, on East 4th Street:

Step repair.

As you can see, this is a two-hammer job!
