  • Pothole

    Northampton St & Private Alley No. 814

    I can’t tell if there is a pothole or if it is a new sink hole forming on Northampton Street between tremont and Columbus, across from 255, on the piano factory side. (There was a sink hole around there a couple of years ago that took down a car). Hole is pretty big and makes parking tough / I could see it potentially making a car accidentally bump another car while parking.
