Manhattan Residents Endure Days Without Heat and Hot Water

Some Manhattan residents have been without heat and hot water for three days due to a water main break at Third Avenue and 37th Street in Murray Hill, affecting several buildings in the area. The issue was caused by water leaking into a Con Edison steam system, leading to frustration and minimal communication among impacted residents. The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is working to complete the repair as soon as possible, while temporary water fountains have been set up for residents to access water.
