Description
Another year has gone by and Metro Pipe and supply company at 303 Binney st, Cambridge has done nothing to fix the problem of water run off from its roof. Last year you may recall that quite a few of us requested that something be done here. To refresh the issue is that ice and snow accumulate on the roof and when they thaw water runs right down onto the adjacent sidewalks on Binney and Fulkerson streets. Inevitably some of this water will re freeze leaving the sidewalks treacherous for anybody who attempts to negotiate them. The solution- install gutters so that ice/snow melt is directed safely to a drain and not onto the sidewalk. Come on people! This company sells pipes and probably gutters too! Let's get some vote love on this and get the city to act! No more slipping, falling and injuring ourselves on Cambridge streets!

During the summer, it's already annoying because of the water flooding the sidewalk, but oh well.
During the winter though, the sidewalk becomes covered with hard ice, which is dangerous. Please have that company install gutters to properly get rid of rain / melting snow.
