19800 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48203, USA
Summary: A fire hydrant at 19800 Woodward in Detroit, Michigan, became stuck open, resulting in water loss at a nearby dialysis clinic. The hydrant's malfunction, reportedly due to a broken stem, led to the clinic losing water to all sinks and toilets. The Detroit Water Board was notified to address the issue. Temporary measures were taken to gate down the hydrant and restore water to the facility, but a permanent fix from the Water Board was still pending.
