Seattle Underground Tour: Learn How the Underground is Created

The Seattle underground is the network of underground passageways in Downtown Seattle. Even though the spaces were become unusable, but the underground become the tourist attraction of the city in recent years.

The building was made of wood in the beginning. In the year 1889, a cabinet make accidentally ignited a glue pot. The fire department made an attempt to turn off it with water. But it spread the burn. This was happened because the fire volunteers made a mistake by using too many hoses.

After the fire the city leaders took two decisions instead of rebuilding it. The two decisions are: all the new buildings must be built with stone or brick, insurance should be made. The second is to regrade the streets with one or two stories higher than the original.

The reconstruction of the streets involves a pedestrian climbed ladder to go between the streets, sidewalks in front of the building, and skylights. After the construction of the new walk building owners moved their businesses to the new ground floor.

The Seattle Underground began in the year 1890. This is a 90 minute walking tour. The tour explains the Seattle history and the compares the present day Seattle. The tour is described as the Hilarious Historical tour Beneath Seattle's Sidewalks.
