Description

Because both driveways of the 8800 complex drain downhill to 49th St., the edge of the southbound strip floods in heavy rain, even though there is a drainage box in between the two driveways; today's lunchtime rainstorm caused about 3 inches of standing water in the lane.

The probable fix here is to reengineer the curb in that stretch of road so that the slope to the drain box is steeper; the box itself didn't seem overloaded.

If they *do* recurb this stretch, *they need to get the turnout radiuses right* (as they currently are not), and I will come back to haunt them if they screw that up too. :-)

In Other News: that's not the right Category; It's no longer permissible to leave Category unselected, and there's a *lot* of ground the list in the pulldown menu doesn't cover.
