Portland, Oregon Old Town Subway haunting
Video surveillance from the Subway in Oldtown in downtown Portland. 5-18-15 In the video you will see the coffee filter fly off the machine, in the right of your screen. Just behind that wall is an entrance to Portland's Shanghai tunnels! Cool stuff!
Shanghai Tunnels | Abandoned Passages | Chinatown | Portland | Oregon | USA | HD
The Old Portland Underground, better known locally as the Shanghai Tunnels, is a group of passages in Portland, Oregon, United States, mainly underneath the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood and connecting to the main business section. The tunnels connected the basements of many hotels and taverns to the waterfront of the Willamette River. They were originally built to move goods from the ships docked on the Willamette to the basement storage areas, allowing businesses to avoid streetcar and train traffic on the streets when delivering their goods.

Haunted Portland - Shanghai Tunnels (Americ'as Most Haunted)
Take a tour of Shanghai Tunnels - haunted sites in Portland, Oregon.
Old Town Pizza is a landmark in Portland that has been serving tasty pies for many years. Thousands have visited this place from locals to celebrities, including Jay Leno, and Rachael Ray. Many claim this charming restaurant, located in a historic building, is haunted. The ghost of Nina has been seen here, and her presence felt by many.
Wearing a black dress, Nina wanders amongst guest and spends time in the basement. They say sometimes if you are really quiet you can hear her breathing. The restaurant is located in, what used to be a merchant motel and legend has it that Nina was found dead in the hotel. Rumor has it she was pushed to her death down this very elevator shaft and has remained here ever since.
It was a woman in a black dress, who was coming down the stairs, which was very odd because there was nobody in the restaurant except myself, and I saw somebody moving downstairs and went to go investigate, and there was no one there. The building itself sits on Portland's infamous Shaghai tunnels. They have an intriguing and tragic past, the history dates back about a hundred and fifty years.
When you enter the underground you start getting a cold dark feeling. The tunnels travel all around the waterfront areas in the city. They are made of basements and underground passageways that connect underneath places like bars and hotels. They have served many purposes but most noticeably to kidnap men and hold them until sold to ship captains passing through. There are many accounts of these tunnels being haunted.
Visitors of the area claim to hear voices and footsteps, and even see the occasional apparition down the tunnels. Along the way you will also get to see the many trapped doors that were used to capture their victims. They are also called dead falls, by the people at the time. This is a very mysterious piece of American history in a place that leaves a lasting impression. I am Mary Piercing, showing you Portland.

Hung Far Low- Restoring a Chinatown Treasure in Portland, Oregon
The iconic Hung Far Low sign returned to its historic place in Old Town/Chinatown at NW 4th Avenue and NW Couch Street. The sign was installed over a two-day period, and then gift-wrapped until its unveiling on September 2, 2010.
The sign was removed during the 2008-09 renovation of the Hung Far Low building, which now houses Ping Restaurant. Portland citizens rallied to restore the 2000-pound landmark, raising more than $8,600 through commemorative t-shirt sales, a website and special events. PDC closed the remaining gap with approximately $45,000 in grant funding. The total cost of the project -- which includes removal of the sign, design and restoration work, and its re-attachment to the building, is estimated at $77,461.
We couldn't be happier about the return of the Hung Far Low sign to our neighborhood, said PDC Executive Director Bruce Warner. PDC's Sign and Lighting Improvement Program enabled the restoration of an iconic Old Town/Chinatown treasure and demonstrates our strategic commitment to public amenities, historic preservation and a vibrant central city.
About the Project
The Hung Far Low Building was built in 1916 and 1917. The eponymous restaurant was established in 1928 and operated on the second floor until its move to SE 82nd Avenue in 2005. In 2008 building owner Joanne Hong leased part of the building to HFL Project LLC, and the tenants opened Ping Restaurant on the street level in 2009.
During roof replacement work in 2008, the deterioration of the sign's support structure became apparent, and the sign and support structure were removed from the building and stored at Security Signs. The HFL principals have been instrumental in driving the sign repair and re-installation, working with Mrs. Hong, the local Chinese community and Old Town/Chinatown businesses and neighbors, and collecting donations.
The sign's appearance changed over the years when it was repainted and when the restaurant moved out of the neighborhood. Until 2004 the pagoda and Hung Far Low lettering on the sign were outlined in neon, and there is interest in someday restoring the neon lighting to the sign.
Initially, Security Signs planned to re-skin the existing sign framework, but instead proposed a new aluminum structure to replace the extensively-corroded framework. The sign has been completely re-constructed and painted to match the original colors. KPFF Engineers designed the steel and cable support structure, which was fabricated and installed by R&H Construction. Security Signs will attach the new sign to the support structure. KPFF will make structural observations during installation, and coordinate the required inspections. Lights on the building façade will illuminate the sign.

Pike Place Market - AMERICA'S #1 CHOWDER + Must-Eat Market Tour in Seattle | American Food!
►SUBSCRIBE for 2 new videos per week:
►T-shirts and caps available now:
Pike Place Market is a landmark of #Seattle, and one of the oldest continuously functioning markets in the United States. I had been there once before when I was a kid, but this time I was on a mission to go on the ultimate Pike Place Market food tour!
In this video you’ll find some of the best food within the market and all the details about what to order and eat when you’re in Seattle, Washington. One tip - go early to start eating before the main huge rush comes - when it gets to mid-day, the market is packed.
Here are all the restaurants we tried at #PikePlaceMarket:
Lowell's Restaurant - For breakfast we went to the legendary Lowell's Restaurant, serving a mix of classic American food including seafood. I wanted to try their dungeness crab eggs benedict, which was a little expensive, but pretty good.
Dungeness crab eggs benedict - $25
Pure Food Fish Market - Next to Lowell’s don’t miss the smoked salmon. Again, it’s not cheap, but it’s so good, salmon glistening and embedded with smoke.
½ Pound salmon - $16.56
Ghost Alley Espresso - Next on this Pike Place Market food tour I was in desperate need of a coffee to begin the morning so we navigated our way past the gnarly gum alley to Ghost Alley Espresso. Great place for a quick cup of espresso.
Doppio espresso - $3
Piroshky Piroshky - A legendary bakery that serves mostly Russian influenced baked goods, both sweet and savory, is Piroshky Piroshky. Again, I tried to keep it pretty classic, and Seattle style, so Jason and I split the salmon pate piroshky. It was very tasty, with a cream cheesy taste.
Salmon - $6.85
Pike Place Chowder - Having won every chowder competition and award in the US as possible, Pike Place Chowder serves America’s #1 Chowder. So you know you can’t miss it when you go to Pike Place Market. We got in line about 20 minutes before they opened and line didn’t take long. You order, get your chowder, and then sit down. I don’t have too much experience with chowder, but indeed it was good, and I also really liked the seafood bisque.
Total price - $37.76 total
Beecher's Handmade Cheese - Another classic is Beecher's Handmade Cheese where you can sample cheese curds and also order grilled cheese sandwiches.
Flagship sandwich - $7.49
Ellenos Real Greek Yogurt - They also have a very loyal following and for sure it’s some of the best yogurt I’ve ever tried.
Market Grill - Finally to end this Seattle food tour we stopped at Market Grill, right in the heart of the market and I ordered the grilled salmon plate. Overall, it was good, and a perfect ending to this extreme food tour!
Grilled salmon plate - $15
Thank you for watching!
