Hey, we're no pothole expert, but there's a giant crater of a hole outside the abandoned 44 Broad Street, and I think it was preventable.

After watching traffic swerve around the hole and orange cone, meant to alert drivers to the hazard, I pulled over to investigate.

My degree is in professional writing, not engineering or building maintenance, but I followed the stream of water from the building to the hole, then doubled back to see a steady drip drip drip coming from a pipe on the exterior of the building.

It may not matter that much to anyone, what with the building being empty and the road slated for Broad Street Parkway construction, but I'd like to suggest someone turn off the water and fix the hole.

Do you have a pet pothole peeve? Snap a photo and send it in, or let me know where it is and I'll add it to the interactive Pothole Patrol map embedded here. Or even better, you can add it yourself.
