\n A Brooklyn water main break flooded basements in a row of brownstones in Park Slope with up to five feet of water and turned the neighborhood into an ankle-deep lake Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

The pipe burst on St. Johns Place near Fifth Avenue shortly before 10 a.m., forcing firefighters to cordon off the street for several hours to pump out the water.<\/p>\n

They left the scene around 1 p.m. and residents said their water was turned back on by 2 p.m.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was in the basement to do laundry and there was water,\u201d homeowner David Kirschenbaum, 60, told The Post. \u201cI tried pumping it up and it wasn\u2019t stopping.\u201d<\/p>\n

Resident Kat Hornstein, 30, said she learned of the watery mishap when \u201cmy roommate said someone\u2019s basement exploded because of water pipes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe water does get turned off occasionally and there\u2019s a lot of construction around here,\u201d Hornstein said. \u201cThere was a lot last summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stefan Heinze and Kelsey Olafson, who live on the second floor of one of the flooded buildings, said their power and water were turned off briefly.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe talked to one of the neighbors and they said they had five feet of water in their apartment building,\u201d said Heinze, 30.<\/p>\n

Olafson, 29, also blamed the water main break on construction in the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cA month ago they were excavating the area,\u201d he said. \u201cThat just seemed like that was the cause of where the leak was.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fire officials at the scene said eight buildings were flooded but said no residents were displaced.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
