PLATTSBURGH CITY, NY - 8/3/16
For years the concrete front steps of the Plattsburgh Public Library kept falling apart. Patch jobs only covered up the problem. But recently a full renovation to the entrance promised no more cracks, no more chunks falling off.

The solution? Back to patching. Part of the crack is covered but has it really gone away?
