They're replacing the sidewalks and the big dig-up revealed tons of old bricks from times past, as well as a little section of the original facade of the building, which is hiding 'neath a shiny substance which may or may not be Vitrolite.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is what happens when you don't hire a certified plumber to do the job well. Now everyone in the building is flushing into this pit. Tomorrow, the city workers will need to come and fit a new pipe and I'd hate to be there when they lift that lid.
The water has been out in our building for a couple of days. We've
been given an hour and a half reprieve to use water and this is where
its all going.
As I opened the window to take this shot I could already smell the putrescence.

My mom and a neighbour digging toward each other, my mother started at our door and the neighbour at our driveway to clear the walk so we can get out of our house.
My dad took this picture in the early 60s, with an old Russian camera, probably a Leica of some kind. I've done a little processing, tinting it slightly to look older and adding contrast.
Thanks M&C for taking this, this was my first time out shoveling on Sunday. It took a couple more attempts, and then I helped the neighbours with theirs. :)
Adventist world church officers help Kwang Soo Park, left, dig for a commemorative planting to mark 20 years of the 1000 Missionary Movement Training Center earlier this month in Silang Cavite, Philippines. Park is the director of the center, which has trained more than 6,000 people for mission service since it opened in 1993.
A fresh water well was needed to connect the clinic with a spring system a few feet down. Clean water is hard to come by and the nearby spring was used as a cleaning and bathing area. The rivers are full of trash and debris and often act as a bathroom, laundry area, bathing area, and playing area. The water, when supplied by the local municipality, is plagued by parasites and far from potable. The team from Poland Springs and PID worked hard to build water filtration systems that have significantly improved the overall health of the villagers.
The child here, Mario, is sponsored by one of our team members. Only nine years old, he was very sick growing up and looks much younger than he is. He constantly jumped into holes, grabbed shovels, and insisted on helping us with every task.
Had a thought in my head that I needed to express threw a picture. And this will be expressed threw a series of pictures. I plan on shooting everyday, sort of a 365 project, but I really cant commit myself to something like that. Since it was around 6:00 and I have yet to take a picture, I headed over to my neighbors to see if he would be the lovely model. We went out to a field, to where a dead body could be found. Set-up and took some pictures.

Noëlise Monrose is digging new drains for his banana farm in the Bexon valley in St Lucia. 85 - 90 percent of the banana growers in St Lucia were affected by Hurricane Thomas in October 2010, which caused landslides and flooding throughout the island. As a result waterways were destroyed, fields were silted and yields were lost. Through a FAO intervention, waterways are cleared and windbrakes are planted to protect the fields from hurricanes as the season is approaching.
