UAlbany Tunnels

I was talking to a friend of mine online, and told him about the tunnels at UAlbany that people can use so they don't have to go outside and freeze. He wanted me to take pictures so he can see what it looks like, but I decided to shoot a video instead.

For the record, I start in the lecture centers, and end up in the Education basement.

that looks dangerous... but efficient!

Eh, everything's fine now. There used to be tunnels leading from the podium to the quads, but those have long since been closed, so now people have to walk outside to get to the Podium. IDK the official reasons, but rumors have it it was because of violence (i.e., people getting raped and such).

It sounds like you are chattering your teeth!

That's just the camera.

Haha. Most of your video is the hallways leading up to the tunnels. The actual tunnels look like a post-apocalypitic underground highway.

I know. As you can see in the vid, I DO go into the tunnels briefly...

[jjinc24]

OK, just curious.

do you go to UB?

Actually the whole network can be called the tunnels.. "Tunnel" doesn't just mean an underground road, you know. So aside from the hallway part in the very beginning, all of this took place in the tunnels.

Also, if you want to be really technical about it, the part with the golf cart road isn't even a tunnel, because it's at ground level. The podium is built on top of a huge concrete slab.
