electric-fire

By Ernie Fritz

The FDNY closed the Southbound side of Broadway between 102nd and 105th Street on Thursday morning around 9:15 a.m. as they waited for a fire in an electrical box underground to burn itself ou. Subway service at 103rd was unaffected. M104 buses were detoured, however.

Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate.
