It wouldn't surprise me if he lived down there. There is this book "The Mole People: Life in the Tunnels Beneath New York City" about homeless people who live inside subway and maintenance tunnels beneath New York City.

Its also common for people to live in the flood tunnels beneath Las Vegas, since it rarely rains in Las Vegas.

Anyone interested in this stuff should check out Mole People. Takes place in New York, but it's similar. Found it to be a very good read.

The Mole People: Life in the Tunnels Beneath New York City by Jennifer Toth


Good read. There is some messed up stuff in there.

Well, if you get the chance before launch read The Mole People. I read this in a college anthropology class a few years ago and it was so interesting that I kept the book. It details so much about underground culture and the vast network of tunnels and cisterns and the resourcefulness and survival skills of these "Mole People."

Also, more to your comment, it would be interesting to see a couple people holding out in a penthouse or on a rooftop and going on supply runs into the lower levels of the building or into the city.

lolol! That rat killed in the Marcy Projects is normal sized, he is holding a 4 foot long pitchfork toward the camera, old trick! Of course people claim to see rats the size of dogs, the same people also claim that there is a benevolent floating deity watching over us from outer space!
Read the Mole People, this lady spent months in the deepest parts of the defunct subway systems and mentions zero giant rats!!
