The Fairview Tunnel

An Old Tunnel which ran through Fairview back in the 40's and was since abandoned. about 16 years ago me and 2 of my friends decided to go through it. In those days the brush and foliage were not there whatsoever, its status of "abandonement" has gone up since then. We walked the mile or so through that pitch black tunnel, with no idea where we would end up, halfway through, we found a smoke shaft that went straight up.

The story of this tunnel and our journey was featured in an issue of Weird NJ. You can find a link to that story and more of the tunnel here:

          As for my 2 other friends, they are still living in the old neighborhood, and we keep in touch on a daily basis.
