  • Summary

  • This episode is about the Shades Cahaba Underpass. Some of you may call it the tunnel but from the time it was conceived in the early 1950s and for the next 40 or 50 years it was called the underpass. I had actually forgotten it was called the underpass until a school mate of mine reminded me of a social media post. No matter what you call it, it has been a favorite of Shades Cahaba students for close to 70 years.

    In this episode, we talk about the growth along Montgomery Highway which was the driver for creating a safe passage for students as they walked to Shades Cahaba School.

    We also share a few memories of the tunnel and art projects to help clean up the tunnel.

    If you haven't been to the underpass in years, there are two opportunities to relive the feeling. At the very end, I have an audio recording of me walking through the tunnel. If you would like a visual, check out this video I took in 2010. https://youtu.be/K7zvPUoUyl8
