Construction Site Du Jour: Skillman Ave. Pool of Death

Pool of Death Crop

On Friday, we posted about the foul nuisance at Skillman and Manhattan Avenue, which is a construction site with a building designed by Robert Scarano that has had a Stop Work Order for a year. What we found when we happened upon 123 Skillman yesterday was an open fence, meaning that any child or drunk or idiot could wander into the site and stumble into a one-story deep pit filled with what looks to be four or five feet of water. Fun.

    I hope they sump pump that shit outta there before summer. Mosquitos love to breed in stagnant water.
