Bernie's Colorado Journeys; explores tunnels under our feet, Colorado’s hollow sidewalks - Show #32

The underground tunnel system, located underneath the sidewalks and streets of almost every major town and city in Colorado was not a new concept. The first known underground tunnels were built around 4,000 BC in Babylonia and the concept expanded to the Egyptians and onto the Romans, as they conquered the then known World. An underground vault is constructed as part of the basement of a building and can expand under the street or even cross over to the other side. The tunnel system could run up and down the street and connect all the buildings together, or be closed off to allow a private area, accessed only with a secret password and a greased palm. Many of the tunnels gave access to the local Parlor houses and allowed a customer to visit the girls without his wife being any the wiser.
