Gas was shut off because of a leaky pipe in the Pomonok Houses on Kissena Blvd. in Flushing, Queens. Repairs could take up to two months, says the head of the tenants association.




A leaky pipe forced the shutdown of gas service to 249 apartments in a Queens housing project, the head of the tenants association said Saturday.


Residents of the Pomonok Houses in Flushing were warned that repairs could take up to two months, said irate association president Monica Corbett.


She said the gas service was shut down Thursday around 10 p.m., with NYCHA workers going from apartment to apartment to disconnect stoves and cap the pipes. NYCHA gave the residents hot plates.
