lesliepearWater Main Break Floods Harlem River Drive
OCTOBER 15TH, 2003
A huge water main break in Harlem is causing a traffic nightmare along the Harlem River Drive.
The water level is as high as car roofs at Amsterdam Avenue and 179th Street following a water main break at about 1:30 p.m. Thursday.
Officials from the Office of Emergency Management are on the scene, and police are re-directing traffic.
Both the exit and entrance to the Harlem River Drive are closed at 179th Street. The northbound Harlem River Drive is now closed to the George Washington Bridge, and there is only one lane open on the westbound Cross Bronx Expressway into Manhattan.
Subway service in the area has not been affected.
This is all over the TV. Looks like a river and then some. This could have affected my commute since the GWB is closed - people could take the Lincoln Tunnel. Maybe it was a good thing Alan is ill.
