Description of Issue: There is a significant hole or gap in the pavement caused by ongoing building work at 73 Seaforth Avenue. The builders appear to have removed or damaged the footpath near the kerb. The surface is uneven and potentially hazardous for pedestrians, especially at night or in poor weather. The area does not appear to be properly cordoned off or marked, increasing the risk of trips or falls.
