Kingston Avenue is closed to traffic from President Street on Thursday evening, as Con Edison does repair work following an explosion and fires in the area on Wednesday.
Dark smoke rising from a maintenance hole on the busy corner of Kingston Avenue and President Street in Crown Heights brought traffic to stop on Wednesday afternoon.
Firefighters advised that multiple transformers in the area have been blown out and were on fire.
