About This Tool
Manhole covers were originally used to cover roads or deep wells in homes to prevent people or objects from falling. New York City once had a number of manhole covers that were being stolen from the city’s streets, leaving dangerous holes in its roads and sidewalks.
So the mayor of New York City came up with an acronym for different manhole cover companies in New York City. For example, BECO = Brooklyn Edison Company, BMT = Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Corporation, etc. If the manhole cover quality problems, we can also directly find the corresponding company and maintenance. The random tool generated the more common 51 New York City manhole cover suppliers. The next time you come across one of these abbreviations, be sure to look it up in the random tool.
