Tailrace Tunnel
The tailrace tunnel at Niagara Falls. From the power station above the falls you take an elevator down 170 feet which opens into the tailrace tunnel. It is 2,200 feet in length and at the end is the new observation platform at the foot of the falls.
The tunnel was built by hand in 1901-1904. The dingy lighting, the old brick and weeping water all work to create a fascinating atmosphere.
