The fact that potholes or mini-sinkholes like this exist in the Bronx (NYC).

Probably in person when you peer underneath it there's more hollowness under the street.

How much does it cost to rent?

Since in the bronx the average square foot is about $333.00. This hole is four quare feet, the price would be 1,332.00 a month.

Dude, just trip in it and sue the city for trillions. Make sure there’s no cameras looking at you plotting though.

Dump some concrete in the hole. The city hates that. It will cost them more to fix it but then it's a priority so they will start working on the others in fear someone will dump concrete in them.

Just dump in the powder, then the water and drop a piece of plywood big enough to cover the hole over it until it dries.

If you just want to fix it then dump asphalt in it and toss a piece of wood over it. People driving over it will pack it down.

I've called the city and told them if you don't fix this, I'll dump concrete in it. They showed up the next morning before daylight.

Too much work. It's actually bigger. If you peer down in person you'll realize more of the ground is hollow underneath.

That's scary. It could be over a sewer or something. I saw an entire car just disappear when one collapsed.
