I fish there often and the teens have broken in and vandalized the pump house before. They also sneak in after the gates are locked to drink beer and smoke pot.

Wait til the school across the street opens......

You are making entirely too much sense, therefore you are wrong. ;)

Teen who fell into Jersey City Reservoir well was 'frightened,' 'shaken,' firefighter says

By Caitlin Mota | The Jersey Journal

JERSEY CITY -- After a 16-year-old fell more than 20 feet into what police are calling a well inside an old pump house at the Jersey City Reservoir, rescuers this afternoon said the boy was lucky to escape relatively unscathed.

At about 7:40 p.m., firefighters were called to the building, which rises above the reservoir along Summit Avenue. Police said the teen got inside by climbing along a 1-inch ledge to a partially-boarded up window.

But the teenager dropped his tablet while inside and somehow fell through a drain pipe and into the well when he went to retrieve the device, according to a police report from the incident.

So was this an old well in the Jersey City Reservoir park? Is the city open to be sued?

Anyone here knew there were wells in J City? The rescue went down on Summit and Jefferson right next the Fire House.
