      That's not a manhole cover, I understand that. But it is better that the water is blowing through this bus-sized grate than blowing manhole covers off the hole elsewhere.

      It's not fake, and it's not a giant "manhole cover" either. It's a large grate that covers/ventilates stormwater infrastructure. I found one on Google Maps at West Fulton and North Canal St. Not the same one, but it explains the video. 41.886676,-87.639856

    Every once in a while, it does rain so much so fast that it causes air pressure to build up in the drainage system causing water to shoot out of the manholes. I just saw it happen this summer as well but I’m a few hours south. I figured this problem happens in Chicago too

    I grew up in a chicago suburb. Our basements would flood so often we put things up on paint cans. Even then, many were up to two feet deep. Rains and rains, doesnt stop. In 1972 the kraft macaroni plant roof collapsed, fatally injuring my aunt, mother of4 children. Despite the heavy rains workers were told to keep working, late shift. Not surprised to hear it still floods.

Ill never forget the citys drainage system backed up from flooding and when the tide came back in because the river drains into the ocean every manhole in downtown was doing exactly this. Like gysers. Pretty cool to see. It just drains back out eventually.

      This is 100% real. Though it is not a manhole, it is a grated air shaft for the Tunnel and Reservoir project. The underground tunnel holds sewer water during heavy rainfall in tunnels under the city. When there is enough air pressure, they can do this.
