A white painted stone sits atop a pile of concrete from a fallen telephone pole. A seemingly random assortment of rubble,it has in fact been gathered to fasten a manhole cover in place. During a period of particular hardship in Ukraine in the 1990s, manhole covers were often stolen and sold for scrap metal, or leaving unsafe open holes in the road.
