vanishingpoint.ca — Imagine a tunnel more than ten storeys underground, a hundred years old, bricklined, wet, and completely inaccessible save by descending through a narrow slit in its ceiling thirty feet above the floor, and then returning up the same rope you came down. This tunnel exists in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

I'm thinking its a likely yet unnecessary supervillain cave?

Wow, it took me a while after thinking about it to realize that my envy for those who've seen them is misplaced. I was in them as a kid, and didn't even make the connection. As you say, lighting really makes those pictures.

This sort of thing blows my mind, all the effort that went into this structure and not only is it hidden from view but it is being destroyed by the forces it attempted to harness. Brings to mind Ozymandias (Percy Bysshe Shelley). The images are quite surreal, a dark place dreamed of but never seen or understood. On a lighter note it would make for the theme of a killer Counter Strike map.

Be sure to visit the rest of the site... Pretty cool stuff you'd never see otherwise...

A little known fact is that this tunnel was used to run (1) Slaves during the CW (2) whiskey during prohibition and (3) currently it is used by illegal Canadians to enter the US

Oh, it's an UNDERGROUND tunnel. Those are much cooler than the above-ground tunnels.
