Downtown Tunnels

Hi,

I was talking to my friend yesterday about a series of tunnels that go underneath 9th Ave and follow up Centre St. These tunnels are supposed to be over 70 years old and he said they are supported by wooden beams like an old mine shaft. He doesn't know any details about these tunnels other than that they are extensive and this is the first I've heard of it. It doesn't sound like the LRT tunnel that was constructed in the 70's as I can't imagine the city using wooden beams.

Anybody here know the history of these tunnels?
