One water

 
water cover number one
Is there a No. 2 Water?

 
This "NO. 1 WATER" utility cover was seen in the street beneath our feet.  It has a horseshoe ("U") protecting the pentagon shaped bolt head, known as a "penta bolt" or "penta screw".

The metal newspaper box outside the former candy store had been removed a long time ago.  Traces of its presence remain:  the four bolts that anchored the box to the sidewalk, and, the less worn and lighter shaded sidewalk concrete beneath the box.
