3ft x 3ft metal grate with a big cylinder thing under it... sits a foot from the sidewalk in my front yard

There are couple above ground cable/ electric boxes next to it in the neighbors yard.. dont think they are to that.. havent seen anyone mess with it in the 5yrs I've lived here... hell, its been buried under leaves for the past 2yrs
 
probably for drainage of some sort. contact your town/utility people. you might not be allowed to fuck with it.
 
I plan on it... just wanted to figure out what its called so i dont sound like a retard on the phone... what i'd like to do is cover it with dirt and plant grass over it so levels my yard right there.. a pain in the ass to mow because of the divot it makes in the ground
 
Oh, this is an old turn-of-the-century thing. The town should know it as a "Polish Beacon".


Serious.
 
I think its a place for unruly children...

Seriously now,
im guessing it needs to be there and i can fuck with it(according to my neighbor),..lol

Huh?

Its got some sort of fiberglass cover on the top, cant tell whats underneath
 
do you see any pipes feeding into or out of it below grade?
i would have to go with drainage, but you can always pull the grate off and get yourself a ladder to investigate
 
:withstupid:

ADVENTURE TIME!!!!!

also you're going to want to bring a flashlight and some salad tongs
 
wouldnt need a ladder.. its not that deep.. corvette, u cant see the pic in the OP? its a metal grate, similar to what you posted .. covering what looks like a box placed in the ground.. its covered in leaf mulch so its hard to tell whats under it
