Description
REPOSTING - the city closed 13-01552283 and did not fix it.
There is a "manhole" on the sidewalk in front of the building at 216 W. 23rd St 60616 (Chinatown) which has a defective cover. It no longer stays or locks in place, and can easily be removed. If someone steps on it, it can allow their leg to fall through. A child can probably fit and fall completely into the hole. Tentants of the building have called in several times but nothing has been done.
Since there is no specific category for a hole cover on a sidewalk this is posted under sidewalk sinkhole.
