Legend: A series of tunnels exists beneath the downtown area
of Klamath Falls.
Status: False, for the most part..
Discussion: Occasionally one hears the rumor
that a network of tunnels lies beneath the downtown area of Klamath
Falls.
While there have at times been underground
passageways connecting certain buildings, there has never been
anything like a network of tunnels.
When the Oregon Bank Building (now known as the
Medical-Dental Building) was constructed, plans called for an
underground passage connecting the building with a parking lot
across Pine Street. According to the building's owner, the
passageway was never used, and was sealed off many years ago.

passageway that was never used.
