Unexpected Places: Behind That Old Warehouse…
…is a 200,000 gallon water storage tank. It’s old and rusty and hasn’t held any water in 20 years. Solid built, so I’m kinda surprised nobody uses it. There’s an inspection door on the side, so a person could go in if they wanted to, but it’s dogged down tight and has a big old rusty padlock on it. Oh, and there’s a rusty and dangerous looking chain link fence around the whole deal. Nobody goes there because there’s nothing there worth seeing or taking.
I’ve heard that the tank has a big pipe…I’m talking 4 or 5 feet in diameter…connecting it to the old water and sewage tunnels from the 1890’s. I reckon if you wanted too, you could go from that tank to any point in the city by using those old tunnels and maybe the old subway lines. Me, I’d get the creeps down there. Everybody knows there’s a whole bunch of crazy albino people living there.
But hey, changing the subject, did you hear about that guy they call The Midnight Ghost? Looks like he busted up another Mob operation over on the west side last night, then stopped a jewelry store heist in midtown about an hour later. And he did it all while the cops are on high alert to catch him! Hahahaha! I wonder how he manages to elude them.
