Rhode Island Draining

Hi! I've been urban exploring for about 6 months now and I've been on and off this site but this is my first post so I apologize if I should put it somewhere else or if I formatted something wrong. Please tell me if the pictures aren't showing (I had a bit of a hard time with them).

Anyway, with that said, I've attached some images of a drain I visited in the summer. It was constructed by the WPA in Rhode Island in 1939 and is mostly composed of cement and brick tunnels. It flows out into a beautiful cobblestone pathway, but perhaps I can save exterior shots for another post.

Some of these look like oil paintings, which is pretty neat. I really like the tea lights.

Great stuff.
Although a language warning might have been appropriate, ;)

Right, sorry. That graffiti has been there for at least 10 years and I thought you could hardly read it anyway, but I'll put in a warning

Joke.
In Australia we're like "Morning c***", "good morning to you too c***", "It's looking like being a c*** of a day" etc...

Whoops, that went over my head. I guess it's a bigger deal here in the US

It is an actual swear here in the US... but I doubt anyone on this forum cares.

There are a few of them! Most of the better ones were built around the '30s and '40s here.

Am I safe in assuming a 401 area code for #9?
