This website is fantastic. Its produced by 2 guys who simply travel the sewers and take pictures. The website is great and extensive. it even includes a map of interesting sewer spots.

They were caught and fined once

Excellent site. They are members here.

How do you get your hands on old maps of the tunnels are they available at city hall?

vanishingpoint is run by a single guy, not two people. The other guy you're refering to does have a great draining related website of his own called undermontreal.com
And yes you're right, vanishingpoint (and UM) are both excellent sites full or great resources and photographic inspiration

Posted by datatec How do you get your hands on old maps of the tunnels are they available at city hall?

Possibly. If you're referring to Hamilton you could also try the Special Collections Department at the Central Library downtown. I think they have some maps and blueprints. The city of Hamilton also used to (or still does) have a mapping program on the website that shows all of the underground infrastructure. I haven't used it in years so I have no idea if it exists any more or not.

Not what I was expecting to see.

Oh, you said, "S"ewers of Toronto & Hamilton.

Never mind.

Ahem...

?

If he's talking about the "other guy" who was "caught and fined" with Kowalski, I'm pretty sure he's referring to Micro...Unless you and Michael were also "caught and fined", in which case I suppose I should have directed him to www.jonmuldoon.ca as well. Both good sites

my apologies.

I think he meant to write "amen."

And while we're at it, these are two other Toronto draining sites that are worth looking at:

the AOTU site is chaulk full of great info and pics. I know they (along with vanishingpoint and worksongs) were a HUGE source of inspiration for me to get out explore drains in the GTA.

Me too. I love how they show you where they are along the river without totally giving away the location so you can still find out for yourself. I creek walked from the lake up to halfway through the city to make sure I found all of them one summer.

I didnt actually know who i meant by "other guy", but man does this forum knows its sewers and shit... pun intended
