London"s Subway System Once Used These Busy Tunnels. But Now? Whoa.

One thing I never understood is why abandoned subway stations and tracks exist throughout New York City. We let these places rot underground in a place where every square foot of real estate is a precious commodity. It just doesn’t make sense.


When I learned that London had these 19 similar places sitting below its busy streets, I had to learn more about what’s down there. But after I did, I seriously wish I’d left it alone. They’re OMG creepy!

If you need to get in contact with me, you’ll find me rocking myself to sleep in the back of my closet. Because that’s the only place I’m going to feel safe for a while after looking at these. So…creepy…
