"Havoc" has been "wreaked" on the Lower East Side this morning following a water main break at 7 a.m., NBC New York reports. NY1's Roger Clark tweets, "Delancey and Bowery on the LES is like a lake right now." And Gothamist's Christopher Robbins, who resides on the Lower East Side, tweets, "Man bun that shit." (We can only assume he's making nonsensical tweets while drowning.) Anyway, Delancey is closed between Elizabeth and Chrystie, Bowery closed between Broome and Houston, and the M103 bus is being diverted.
Some area residents say the water coming out their taps has been impacted, and is coming out brown and murky, CBS 2 reports. Crews with the Fire Department, DEP and Con Edison are all on the scene. What a mess! Hope your Valentine's Day outfit involves rubber hip waders!
