OUTSTANDING ! I just got TWO new Video Cameras. A Dash Cam and a Handheld.

This is the kind of stuff I LOVE to do.

Thanks JOE !

@ozgood1x hey how ya been? how much was that dash cam? did you get it online? I would like to get one :-)

great discovery! Is this the intersection of GCP and Union Tpk which is near the Cross Island (i.e. the service road you entered from is 86th ave) or the other one near the Interboro and Van Wyck?

@blorber1 this is exit 22 of the GCP; close to alley pond park

Was this possibly the 'Bridal Path' that ran all along the old GCP through Alley Pond Park, Cummingham Park, and Kissena Park? It zig-zagged all over this area. Given up about 1969 more or less.

What a great find! Thanks Joe. By the way i know where there is another buried tunnel not far from where this video was shot.This old train tunnel ran until 1965 or so and was finally filled in around 1991. It ran under the cross island parkway towards creedmore.Right past saint gregs school. The school is still there but unless you know where to look you'd never know there was a tunnel there.I don't know how much pull you have as to digging out an old tunnel. Thanks again.

If anyone decides to go into this place they should at least go in groups, do not go alone as Joe said it's dangerous and be safe and have fun.

Why does the reporter keep referring to Union Turnpike as Utopia Parkway? Utopia Parkway is some miles from that location.

Thanks for another fascinating video Joe! I was kinda waiting for the bit where John Donahoe leaps out of some dark tunnel corner...
