A section of a main New Lynn street remains cordoned off this morning with parts of a footpath now a giant gaping hole with an impassable sheer drop.
Auckland Council officials will be out in force today inspecting the destruction after hours of torrential rain led to widespread flash floods across West Auckland yesterday.
A building left teetering perilously close to a footpath that is now a gaping sinkhole on New Lynn's main street is a key area of concern.
