East 4th Street Blocked

While taking pictures of the tree trimming going on on Avenue C today, I noticed that cars were backing out of East 4th Street onto Avenue C. This only happens when the street is blocked for some reason, like a fire or construction.

I walked down the block to see what was going on, and saw this:

Big ol' cement truck blocking the street.

Here's a close-up:

I'm glad that's not my car! Oh wait, I don't have a car!

Here's a view of the activities taking place on the other side:

Putty, putty… cement mixer.

It was pretty loud. I feel sorry for the people living in the building there — no beauty rest today!

East Villagers love their beauty rest!
