NYC Secret Subway

[Furtherman]

Cool.

Hidden deep under New York City, a "secret" subway stop is drawing visitors. The Big Apple's City Hall station, a beautiful structure that opened in 1904, but has been out of use for decades, can be seen by riders ... if they know how to make the journey.

I always heard about this station and wanted to see it, but when I lived there the conductors would make you get off the train at the last station. Next time I visit, I'm definitely gonna try it. Isn't that the station that has a piano?

i get that feeling a little bit. one episode he goes to an old military outpost......the hubs of which were split by a river but there was a secret connecting hallway that connected the two under the river......he went really far into it and the hallway just got smaller and smaller.....kinda freaked me out.

I used to work in an underground 2000ft coal mine and we had this coal cutter called a longwall miner. It ran 1000 feet with hydraulic metal supports to keep the rock roof from falling in on you. I would get the heebee geebees when I would be a minimum of 50 feet out under that thing - worse as I would get closer to the middle.
