Atlanta Watershed crews restored water service to five Atlanta apartment complexes just before 9 p.m. Thursday after a water main break.
The break occurred at the intersection of Lakeside Drive NE and Kingsboro Road and affected The Grandview at 3481 Lakeside Drive, AMLI Flatiron at 3480 Lakeside Drive, AMLI Lenox at 3478 Lakeside Drive, The Villa at Buckhead Heights at 3435 Kingsboro Road and Kingsbury Luxury Apartments at 3443 Kingsboro Road, according to the water department.
Water service had to be temporarily interrupted to allow for repairs, the department said. The issue also prompted the closure of Kingsboro Road NE between Lakeside Drive NE and Roxboro Road.
The city, in an update posted on X, said traffic control measures are still in place in the area. The break was caused by a roughly 2 to 3-foot crack, the city said.
The incident comes about a month after multiple main breaks left parts of Atlanta, including all of downtown, without water for days.
After the ordeal became national news, the City Council approved an amendment to an ordinance to free up $177 million to update the aging system.
