Alley way is in poor condition.
Alley way is in poor condition.
the street storm drain behind the Von Lee building was clogged on Friday night and Saturday morning 6-18 to 6-19-21. This caused water to not flow into the drain and considerable damage to cars and property in the surrounding area. On Saturday morning at around 7:30am I was able to unclog the drain. At the time water was up to just below my knee which is about 20 inches. A car was abandon by the drain and later towed by a local towing company. My property which is 507 east Kirkwood Ave. sustained damage as well as the IU business lobby just east of the drain in the von lee building. This drain should be change to a more clog proof type. This has happened in the past and will in the future
The ally that runs between 516 N Grant and 520 N Grant is almost impassible. There are numerous pothole which are extrememly deep, a regular car bottoms out when trying to drive through. The road Harrold, right behind is also severely delapitated.
I submitted a request earlier regarding the alley behind 530 N Lincoln Street. This is a similar request. The alley that runs alongside of the building and behind is in atrocious shape. There are numerous potholes posing a risk to any vehicle traveling on the road.
Large and deep pot holes

Deep pothole in center of road
The at-grade railroad crossings on N Adams and on Fountain Drive are in deplorable shape. Is the city responsible for these, or the Indiana railroad Company? There are many crossings in Bloomington and most of them are fine. These crossings are in a lower income neighborhood so I'd think the city, with its focus on equity and social justice, would be very interested in getting these improved.
Wooden Railroad tie is broken. Unsafe for cars driving over it. Could pop tire or ruin underside of a low riding car.
