In this HotAir article, Beege Welborn highlights how a massive 100-year-old water main break under Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood inadvertently washed away street filth that Los Angeles officials failed to address.
- A 36-inch riveted steel pipe from 1916 ruptured early Thursday, flooding streets, creating a large sinkhole, damaging pavement and sidewalks, and forcing closures on Sunset Boulevard and nearby roads.
- The break caused significant traffic chaos, flooded a Metro bus depot submerging vehicles, and required emergency rerouting, while raising concerns about building foundations and homeless individuals in the area.
- LADWP crews shut valves, assessed damage, and began repairs, but the incident underscores long-term infrastructure neglect in the city.
- Critics link the failure to Mayor Karen Bass’s priorities favoring homeless housing projects over essential water system maintenance, amid prior controversies involving LADWP leadership and fire-related liabilities.
- The flooding ironically achieved what city efforts could not: cleaning notorious dirty sidewalks, prompting sarcastic commentary on LA’s ongoing urban decay.
- The event serves as a stark reminder of aging infrastructure risks in major cities and misplaced government focus on pet projects versus core services.
