This young man bending over his bicycle took a major belly flop on to street because of a pot hole, more NYers will be kissing concrete painfully because of MIke's new hideous NY, streets better in Colonial times

Expect to kiss concrete.....and I am not talking in a pretty way...the pot hole is to your right...I saw this young man...perhaps an NYU student completely belly flop on to the concrete because he hit a pot hole.

Mike Bloomberg and his completely irresponsible city planner socialite mega millionaire Amanda the people's Burden pushed a reckless tsunami of development catering to greedy ruthless real estate magnates and the people of NY be dammed but the harsh ugly realities continue to hit New Yorkers in the face literally from the pock ridden streets and sidewalks to the over crowded subways stations with less service, ditto for buses, etc.

For bicyclists and motorcyclists -- anyway really -- be extra alert -- because these pot holes will take you down.  Even as a pedestrian I almost twisted my ankle badly stepping in to a big crack in the street that should not be there.


Try to be alert and safe...  This young man was lucky no car was speeding and accidentally ran over him!   I have a YouTube series "Mike Blomberg's Streets of New York" and it ain't pretty.

Note:  Since the water main break a block from Cooper Union's irresponsible creepy Studio build -- who cares about a delipidated old infrastructure -- let us just be part of Mike's greedy tsunami of development....the water main break that I linked to in these tubes and infrastructure tubes -- the street above the break keeps re-opening years later like a bad wound.  Not far away around the corner where part of this series is filmed the street continues to re-open like a bad wound but again who cares as long as developers can bust through zoning because mega-dorms and sky piercing hotels and condos are far more important than infrastructure concerns, street conditions, over crowded dilapidated subways = the safety of the people of New York, the people that commute here to work and tourists.....
