Street lights along Washington at least between 7th and 10th have been off for months now, leaving the street pitch dark at night. With the students back and the stealth parties, this situation has become more dangerous.
I recently reported the fact that most of Washington has been kept in the dark at night for months. Tonight street lights finally came on, except, ironically, the one outside my building.Another light, between 8th and 9th was on but the glass cover seems filled by rubble. In general the lamps are and look old and neglected.
the old power lines supported by the street lights are getting weighted down by more and more hanging fratboy sneaker pairs. A few years ago one of the lines a little further down the block heavy with sneakers came down and started a fire.
The first street lamp on the left (#512) upon entering the alleyway between 8th St and 7th St from Indiana Ave is burnt out. It is located at the corner of the parking lot behind 307-309 Indiana and 512 7th St, near the dumpster.
It has been reported the street lights are not working on South Mitchell Street in the evenings.
The street lights on S Mitchell St never come on at night. I am not 100% sure if they are city-maintained or not, though, but was unsure about where else to report this issue.
Street light at corner of E Dixie and S Grant has been either really dim, flickering, or completely out.
There are two street lights in front of the building that are extremely dim. It seems that the bulbs are burnt out.
I called a couple of weeks ago to report that there were 4 street light out on 11th and Morton. They were never repaired and now there are approximately 8-10 lights out. I’m concerned because my college student walks these streets every night in the dark and it’s just dangerous. Like I said, this is my second time reporting this.
The lights along Sare/State Road 45 as you approach and past 2nd street are nearly all out. Some almost seem like they may be triggered by motion but if that is the case- they are not working properly. Most are just dark.
