Graffiti Tunnel

March 24th, 2013 by



Deep below NYC lays this mythical location, where serious writers put up blockbuster pieces for only the select few that are daring enough to find this subway tunnel to view and enjoy. Here's a sampling of what can be found in this amazing location.

The Night that LTV Saved Greenpoint.

March 21st, 2013 by


Ok, so the title is a little dramatic, but it's not too far off from reality. Were it not for our nocturnal exploring activities, a major fire could have destroyed a fuel storage facility and other vital infrastructure. First responders could have been seriously injured or worse.

It took them a long time to get to it, but the US government has finally taken the leap and called explorers and graffiti artists 'terrorists'.

Montauk Steel, Long Island City

March 12th, 2013 by



Montauk Steel was located on Borden Avenue in L.I.C., on land that was once part of the LIRR's old Wheelspur yard. There is currently very little information about this company on the internet, so here's what I can tell you.

LIC’s Wheelspur Yard / Poultry Market – Past, Present & Future

March 11th, 2013 by



On the north shore of Newtown creek lays a plot of land with a strangely unique history - a place that was once a rail yard, then a poultry market and later an office for small businesses and other food distributors. All of these are gone now, and soon this land will become a rail yard once again. In a city where real estate is at a premium - such a full circle transformation is unheard of - especially in an area such as L.I.C. - where the city's industrial past has rapidly been whitewashed to make way for high priced housing. Mix in the drama of flooding and fire caused by Hurricane Sandy, and you've got a unique New York story.

Fr8 Chronicles Part 3 – Field Ov Dreams Freight

March 1st, 2013 by



Somewhere west of nowhere, this row of freight cars sleeps away another lazy day. By night they will be painted, for if you park them, they shall come...

NYC’s Smallest Apartment

February 27th, 2013 by

When we found that a tiny closet in this infrequently used tunnel had been occupied by an unknown person who went through the trouble of ‘furnishing’ it, we knew that NYC’s red hot real estate market would turn this into a very profitable find. Rental offers have come in from perspective residents living as far away as Stockholm and Vladivostok.

Smith’s Dungeon

February 18th, 2013 by



Smith's Dungeon is perhaps one of the hardest NYC Subway tunnel locations to crack open. Leave it to one of our newest members to crack open a spot that has eluded more explorers and graffiti artists than a hand full of Sonia Vergara's massive tits.
