ON THE SIDEWALKS OF NEW YORK: GATEWAY TO HELL CLOSED

Remember a couple of months back when I posted about the explosion right around the corner from where I work, a situation not inaccurately described in the local papers as a "volcano on 41st Street" that looked like this when I went outside to see it for myself?

July 18th.

Well, the gaping hole on the street has finally been sealed after just over two months, restoring order to west-to-east traffic access. The repairs were originally projected for completion within two weeks after the explosion, but anyone who knows anything about NYC road repair had a good laugh over that one.

A couple of days ago.

Just thought you'd like to see how it turned out.
