It's such a weird and beautiful place, and it was especially thrilling to discover that there are now stalactites and stalagmites forming inside the tunnel mouth!

Much of it is still like a time capsule. Sadly, though, there's no curve to the tunnel anymore: it ends after just a couple hundred feet or so.SDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633816278415014207.post-19710089522377076362009-09-02T01:48:16.428-07:002009-09-02T01:48:16.428-07:00I took a tour of the building a few years back.

A distance down the tunnel it curves and the daylight disappeared. The end is the wall of the Bonaventure Hotel's subterranean parking, with some water pooled in front.<BR/><BR/>I happened by the north end this week, at the end of the Toluca Street cul-de-sac off of 2nd Street, mostly hidden now behind that new apartment building.Darrell Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05228624730015505271noreply@blogger.com
