The past several weeks our block in the Outer Richmond District has been the focus of attention. Crews from the Department of Public Works and PG&E surveyed and marked a corroded lateral sewer line on our street.

When the preparatory work was complete a crew from DPW came out to do the heavy lifting of digging up the street and replacing the corroded pipe. Having a close vantage point I kept a photo journal of the project.

Following is a photo essay. of the City at work.

The DPW workers were very conscientious and tidied up the job site each day.
