I believe this is another project run by the notorious contractor tommy huang responsible for destroying the old Flushing Kieth's Landmark Theater....undermining 287/136/46 Firehouse forcing a vacate a few years ago then resuming work next door illegally while a stop work order was in place & killing a worker in the process...running many illegal projects destroying Queens one block at a time...but always one step ahead of the law...  https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=tommy+huang+flushing

And now he'll probably get the contract to repair and replace the water main and the damage that he caused.  Nice gig if you can get it.

Report that another stop work order was in place when this happened.
