  10. The slow drip of America's infrastructure crisis

    This month, a critical link in the city's most essential public infrastructure hit a breaking point: A 120-year old water main burst, shutting down Light and Lombard streets, disrupting commutes and downtown businesses. Only 10 days later, a sink hole collapsed a portion of East Monument Street near Johns Hopkins Hospital when an underground storm-drain culvert failed.

We know investing in water infrastructure is critical not only for the public health but also for job creation and economic growth.
