You all recognise this.

If you dont, close your tabs and exit Firefox. Reopen and go look up some hipster band or something.

Now, just to get you in the know... this place is known as the Toronto Power Station Tailrace Tunnel.

Kowalski got together with some ex-army types in late 2004 and busted it. He then showed me a photo entitled 'confluence.jpg'.

Much to his, lol, chagrin, i started calling the tunnel system 'Confluence'... and being the pillar of the community that iam, my coinage eventually stuck (just like 'Urbex' back in 1998* :P)

It took me till mid 2006 to attempt it myself, whereby i failed cos well, homemade 15ft wire ladders arent really a wise choice for being the primary way in and out.

Leaving Canada a week later, i had to watch, from Australia as Dsankt, Jon Doe n Stoop renamed it from Confluence to the DIY Supervillian Hideout.

Then finally, with the masterful aid of Snappel, Loops, Little Mike, Shane, Nel58 and Sgt Marshall, in late 2008, i finally did it.






Solitary.



Loitering.



Down the main line.



A way in.
