During prohibition, corrupt city officials ran drinking dens under the streets of Downtown Los Angeles. Not heeding the prohibition laws, 11 miles of service tunnels became passageways to the basement. King Eddy Saloon is an establishment that has been alive and kicking since the 1900s, in the guise of a piano store. Patrons were able to move about under the city, boozing without a care in the world. Apart from the service tunnels, there are also abandoned subway and equestrian tunnels. Some are still accessible and are used as film locations, easy shortcuts by city employees between buildings, and a place for runners to train.
