To get a good look at everything, let's take a tour of underground New York.
You’ll look at millions of wires and hundreds of thousands of cables, see the sewer system and the water supply system, each three times the length of the Hudson River. But there is much more to it... What secret passages are there? And who lives in this underworld?
Beneath New York lies a vast infrastructure and archaeological wonders. We'll start our behind-the-scenes tour with the layers closest to the surface. Grab your flashlights, we are about to start a fascinating journey called:
"What Lies Under New York?".

  • I've always been fascinated with the history of what's underground in NYC. I like the way you show how deep everything is, and how relative to the tunnel above it.

  • Mail pipes were such an ingenious idea. They are all over the city. In the elegant TV thriller show, White Collar, two entire episodes revolved around these pipes. They were the last two of that fantastic TV show. I remember that civilized show and the ritzy mail pipes with much fondness

    • I've never been to NYC, but can immagine the city. But the mail, cows, and alligators blew my mind. While watching the mail part, I thought to myself, why no spike has been created in the direction it went. Science was't so much "MAGLEV like", I guess. Excellent video. Probably the mad cow disease originated right there.

  • Pneumatic pipes are used in some hospitals as it sends samples to various destinations within the hospital system. I as a patient jokingly called it "Lunch from surgery" as you heard the clunking as it went around corners above our heads but hidden by the ceiling tiles. It is much faster than walking 4 floors and using elevators.

    • Cool!😊 We used them at Service Merchandise. Customers would walk thru the displays with a small clipboard w/a blank order ticket and copy down the order number and bring it to a cashier who would take their payment, and send the ticket thru the pneumatic tube to the warehouse were the workers would fill the order and and place the items down the conveyer 'belt' (actually, rolling aluminum tubes). ps...that was the late 70's-early 80's.

We have the RIGHT to own land, and when FORCED to pay every YEAR to KEEP those lands, that is NOT 'ownership' is it? That is RENT and ROBBERY.

    • ​​@@kellycarver2500and what is going to pay for the services for that land? Maybe it's different in the States. Here In Vancouver BC Canada, taxes go to pay for policing, fire department, water sewer etc. I know in California where I owned homes, there's a wonderful thing called prop 13 whereby, so long as the property remains within the family ownership the taxes are not increased according to the value. I didn't own the homes long enough for that too be generational or make a difference to me. An example is that taxes on a friend's home in Beverly Hills that her father built in the '40s went from $10,000 a year in 2019 to $60,000 a year when she died and it left the family's ownership. We don't have that here and our property prices in Vancouver rival or surpass anywhere in the world. XoXo PS You can live free on the land here if you want to go up in the bush in the mountains There's plenty of room and fresh water. And the grizzlies and mountain lions I'm sure would be happy to share it. XoXo

    • 2 jobs couldn't get your foot into an apartment in Manhattan. You either stop working so that the state pays your rent with one of its many programs, or you shack up with other people or are lucky to have an apartment passed down to you with some rent stabilization. About to lose your apartment in NYC? Good luck because the shelters were full before and impossible to get actual help now, even if you're working 2 frekn jobs. There is homelessness. For people who think mental illness, drug usage is the reason homelessness exists, there are many people who are mentally ill or abuse drugs with a doorman, all sponsored by parent's ild money from better times years ago. Variables exist. Average rent in NYC, particularly if you're from Manhattan 3000, 4000 5000 upwards.

  • 35:26 I don’t blame these people. This akes me wonder how many people have died bc of this “mass eviction”. We live in a very small town here and we see people sleeping outdoors more often than we should. Some folks may think and/or say “they need to get a job!!” Unfortunately, some of those people have mental issues. Also, how are you supposed to take a shower and be clean enough to work with no shower? How is one supposed to wash their clothes?? How can you work with a rested,ind when you’ve tried to sleep in the freezing cold all night?? It’s very easy to judge these folks. However, putting yourself in their shoes is a whole new ball game. I don’t live in the nicest house ever, but we have a warm, clean, shelter with food and running hot and cold water. I’ve been on the other side of that fence. It was only for about three days and it was late spring so I didn’t freeze. But it was scary and lonely and just a rotten feeling knowing I didn’t have a bed to sleep in. Or a fridge to get food etc. I guess I’ve made my point. I pray that the folks who are homeless today get some kind of assistance as soon as possible. Whether it be mental/emotional help or financial help or maybe some extra education or ok of the above to help them have a better quality of life. So before you judge that man living under a bridge, or that dirty old lady walking down the street, think about what may have happened in their lives that got them to where they are bc one WANTS to live like that. I want to thank this channel for this video. Y’all did a great job and I found it very interesting and educational. Even entertaining during many moments. Y’all take care yall! 😊😊😊

In Canada farmers who own land on two sides of a busy paver roadway, an have "culverts" built under the road to allow cows to travel to grazing land at their own free will :) Some are built simply to avoid traffic congestion as farms can (according to old laws in place) basically herd cattle where they want on public land, with impunity. Others under passes, are built as "waterways", and cows just allowed to use them :)

    • As a person native to LA it’s true. The whole west it’s true. We didn’t used to have the big cities and had/have lots of open space. This is why people opted for cars instead of subways cause it’s more spread out. West coast cities definitely have a different feel than older East Coast ones. I have yet to even ride a subway and definitely admire the public transportation of east coast big cities. It gives a city character and love the history of them. We do have BART and railway systems but not subways. It’s mainly buses and railways.

Some accessed thru restricted basement and sub basements acting as storage and the rubbish skip, with adjacent buildings cemented off. Some are not so its like an underground alleyway. In France the catacombs are full of bones that act as structural support pillars, so engineers enter to check them regularly. Imagine one gives way while you sleep, get lucky and survive but a a skull with its orbital eye socket rolls onto your pillow staring your direrectly and coincidentally its Friday the 13th! Regular stuff like train tunnels, utilities, water and sewage, both operational and defunct military bases and bomb shelters with some converted for goverment document storage still there. Next time you see a manhole cover, you might be standing above one of these where stairs were once there. The subterranean scape changed a lot you may see cemented arches, if smashed thru you likely end up in some car park for example, but some buildings have underground alleyways allowing access to adjacent shops! Some tunnels are so huge there are literally hundreds of kilometres, get lost and die.

  • Nice video but there is one point I need to clear up: It's not that the rails of AmTrak are private property but that there is a federal law that prohibits trespass on any railroad property. There's another twist; while technically AmTrak is a corporation, it is wholly owned by the federal government. This leads to an interesting issue regarding its property since it is part of the USG making it a public service and a private company, like the US Post Office.

  • Really? The oldest railway tunnel in the world is not in New York. The Butterley Gangroad Tunnel in Derbyshire, England, dates to 1793 and was used initially by horse drawn rail cars, but later by steam trains. The first steam train to use it was in 1813. The tunnel was in use until 1932. The next oldest is the Peak Forest tramway tunnel also in Derbyshire, built in 1795. Just how much research did you do for this?

  • All of those urban legends about Franklin Roosevelt and Track 61 are absolute nonsense. When Grand Central Terminal was being built between 1903 and 1913, numerous railroad related companies built their own buildings around it. Track 61 was laid down to service the Adams Express Company building. Adams Express was a forerunner of FedEx and UPS. It was originally founded in the 1830s to move packages between Boston and New York. Box cars full of packages would be loaded and unloaded on that siding and sent up to the building on a freight elevator. After Adams Express got out of the delivery business, the property was sold. The Adams building was demolished and replaced by the Waldorf Astoria in 1931. Once the hotel opened, track 61 simply became a storage track. There was no other use for it. In recent years, it was occupied by an old baggage car that was used as a tool car for track repair crews. One fantasist made the utterly ludicrous claim that the baggage car was "armored" and that the clerestory windows [skylights] were "machine gun ports". The siding under the hotel existed LONG before Roosevelt was President. It can clearly be seen on the blueprints dating to the early construction of the Terminal. The construction of the platform, corridors and freight elevator make it impossible for any vehicle larger than a baggage cart to have used them. Anyone who knows anything about the history of Grand Central Terminal is well aware of these facts. That platform had absolutely NOTHING to do with President Roosevelt. Unfortunately, there are always some people who continue to repeat misinformation.
