6 sidewalk squares in a row are crumbled making it difficult for Pedestrian walking
This pothole makes navigating this busy sidewalk hazardous. Wheelchairs or strollers can get stuck; pedestrians with mobility issues can easily trip and fall.
The front cement area at the end of the driveway (on city street) is deteriorating, very unsightly, and could be a safety issue.
Sidewalk partially collapsed. Hazardous for wheelchairs strollers pedestrians
Sidewalk always floods. Forces pedestrians to walk in the mud or on the street. Not safe.
On the far east end of the brick sidewalk out front, nearly against the retaining wall of 311 E. Cottage Grove and alongside the alley is what remains of what was probably a former street sign pole. It was broken off at some point about 8 inches from the ground. The remaining stump of a steel pole is still there, and it is *VERY* sharp on the tip. It was painted yellow at some point - possibly an attempt to make this hazard visible, but that doesn't help at night. Someone could trip on it, or worse, someone could trip on something else and fall and be impaled on the spike at the top of it. Please remove it ASAP, but whoever removes it needs to understand how to lay bricks because after removal the bricks will need to be relaid and perhaps some will need replacement. Also, no need to replace the sign because there hasn't been one there in a long time and it was ridiculous in the first place to install a sign in a sidewalk where someone could walk right into it in the dark.
There is a damaged sidewalk with a large crack and significantly uneven surfaces causing a tripping hazard. Many less severe problem spots on sidewalks in the neighborhood have been fixed in the last 1-2 years, but this one was not. Thank you for the attention.
Called in this morning to report that the sidewalk in the entry to the parking lot behind Wonderlab has a raised lip that is hard to see at night and causes people to trip over. The caller mentioned that his girlfriend had tripped over it the night before and it hurt her.
This sidewalk is uneven and cracked and makes it impossible to wheel anything on the pavement. The ground is covered in dirt and leaves which makes passage in the rain hazardous. It also floods in the rain.
This side walk has deteriorated so much it no longer exists besides rubble. I know it is the property owners responsibility but I am not sure who owns this property. Very bad trip hazard and would not allow me to upload picture
