NEW: Five water main breaks in just one week are raising new questions about the state of L.A.’s aging infrastructure. The biggest: a 110-year-old, 36-inch pipe that ruptured in West Hollywood, sending 17 million gallons of water through the Sunset Strip, flooding businesses, apartments and parking garages. LADWP reportedly replaces about 45 miles of pipe each year… less than 1% of its roughly 7,000-mile water system.

Infrastructure failures like this week’s water main break in West Hollywood are the result of decades of neglect. Los Angeles cannot be governed from crisis to crisis. We must plan ahead for the inevitable. As mayor, I will proactively invest in infrastructure and make sure that the city of LA is a strong partner to all other cities in the region.

WOW 🚨 Mayor Karen Bass admits on camera that California Democrats haven’t invested in Los Angeles infrastructure “IN DECADES” The city of Los Angeles has taken in $100 billion in taxes in the last 20 years and Democrats haven’t invested in infrastructure. Where does it go?? “We are a large city, and one of the things that I think is so profoundly Unfortunate is that we have not invested in our infrastructure for decades, and this is the consequences. We shouldn't have to always be filling 10,000 potholes”

Jet fuel, and possibly burst water pipes, pouring from both of the twin towers. This footage is filmed from the west side of the World Trade Center complex. Very little footage this close shows the towers from this angle. Did you know that there were 5,000 gallon water reserve storage tanks in the 20th, 41st, 75th, and 110th floors in each tower. A water pipe that was ripped out can be seen on cedar street next to the orthodox church.
