Potholes, Broken Streets on the Avenues in CB7 (Photos by Jake Nooter)

Please help us update the pothole photo gallery. See excellent suggestion.  



Please let us know if a pothole listed in the photo gallery has been properly repaired. Please use the caption on the photo.


More importantly, since these were taken BEFORE the Christmas Blizzard of 2010, would you kindly take pictures of potholes not noted by doing the following: “Take the pictures in pairs. The first would set the context, showing a whole street-scape, and have an arrow superimposed to show where the problem was; the second would be a close-up showing an awful pothole at the location identified by the arrow in the prior photo”* and email them to livablenewyork@erols.com as a JPEG. Indicate the street where is was taken. We are focused on est 59th-West 110th Street, Central Park West to Riverside Drive.


The upper West Side is riddled with potholes which are dangerous to both pedestrians and drivers.

*Thank you David Black for your excellent suggestion.
