Did you know that 20 feet below Houston’s downtown streets
there is an underground system of tunnels that stretches more than 6 miles
long? It began as a tunnel between two
downtown movie theaters but now includes restaurants and shops and connects 95
city blocks!
For this date you are going to explore down under! This will have to be a day date because the
tunnels are only open Monday through Friday from 6 am to 6:30 pm. So plan to have some lunch while there.
Be sure to look at the map – you can find it here
– because the only way to access the tunnels directly is from the Wells Fargo
Plaza or the McKinney Garage on Main.
Otherwise you must enter from inside the office buildings.

Relationship Reconnection Tip:
Make sure you hold hands while exploring. Walk slow and window shop. Pretend like it is 30 years in the
future and underground cities are the norm.
If you could design an underground city what would it look like? What amenities would it have? Dream big!
Have fun planning the city of the future.
