Posted on Author Matt ContiComment(1)

There was a huge water main break in Boston’s North End on Friday night about 7:30 pm at the intersection of Endicott & Stillman Streets, near Cross Street. Boston Fire said basements are at risk of getting flooded and called in an electrical inspector. As of the late evening, Boston Water & Sewer had substantially slowed down the flow.

Video by Christine Benoit captured video from the scene. Photos also below from Christine and Pete Manzo.
