Given our own experience with a collapsed sewer line (and flooded basement and cellar) last fall, our hearts went out to the Bed Stuy renovators when we read yesterday that they had been forced to start digging up the street to replace their own water main. As they point out, this ain’t a cheap procedure. About $10,000, as we recall.
