Not only was it a hang out for the homeless, I remember it leaking like a sieve whenever there was a heavy rain.

I used to walk the tunnel on inclement days to go to/from Penn to a client of the firm's at 1250 Broadway, when the Empire Savings Bank was the bank in the building.

The firm stopped servicing the client around 1983 while the tunnel was still decent, so therefore the date of the sealing up is probably the mid to late 80's.
