LA Water Main Break Disrupts Date | Venice Beach News
Description
Another water main bursts in Los Feliz—this one at 11 PM on Commonwealth and Avocado, flooding streets, sidewalks, and even a restaurant’s outdoor seating. Six-inch cast iron pipe gives up, sending geysers shooting through concrete before crews arrive. Even interrupts a first date: one guy hops over a flooded section to help his date cross without getting soaked. It’s not the first time—nine major breaks since July 11th. LA’s Department of Water and Power says they’re pouring nearly a billion into aging pipes, and their leak rate’s actually below national average. Crews eventually shut it off and restored service. Old infrastructure? Still a constant battle.
