my theory is this: the pics of the men working diggin dirt are inside of McCullough, and there may be an entrance to/from Comet - the gap was filled to support or hide entry.
McCullough supposedly vacated in 2005 right when Comet moved in, but left sign up.
I actually used to be a non believer in the "underground tunnels" slant but the more I look into it....the more it seems likely there is at least a local access to most of the buildings on the block.
Comet once had a private party where the instructions were to enter Bucks - two doors down, and then go to comet....very strange why not just go to comet?
In the picture of the trench digging with the two men working, the opening can be seen to the right. Someone pointed out that red and black object that is hard to see through the doorway is actually the back of the bar chairs. The seat specifically was red and black with the red facing the opening in wall. Gotta find those pictures. Im working on it now but my connection sucks.
Thats a cute looking angle iron they are using!!!!!!!!! Would be perfect to line up a steel door. You are spot on with the cell phone being the remote. Probably an app for it. Anonymous, I pray you are reading this. This is making way too much sense. This would explain them having a computer server also if not on a mobile device.
Cannot believe they had the balls to renovate and still leave that doorway! If i was growing some pot and I had 5% of the heat on me to how much heat they have, I would make it all vanish. My gut tells me its still there. It'll be so clean you can eat off the floor....
It's strange how the white streak in the trench on the workers side just before the Y branching looks like a human face at the bottom, even magnified and held at different angles. Slightly up from that, on the same side of the trench is some sort of artificial material with a snake like shape. Dirt wouldn't hold that shape.
actually, CPP building is TWICE the size/footprint of Bucks, but they have almost the exact same sq. feet... BUCKS indeed has a basement, which would account for that discrepancy. And Comet PP? It's a VERY TALL single story, so they probably LISTED it as a 2-story, which if reno'd it could easily be... but unless they dug a basement stairway (which to me is EXACTLY what that chalk outline looks like in the cement demolition pics on Alefantis's social media), then they probably don't have a basement, per se... which isn't to say, that they didn't build a doorway to a basement NEXT DOOR, with a step-down staircase. That's very doable, 'spensive but very doable.
There's no reason to discount the tunnels idea. The structures were built in 1932, during Prohibition, and this part of Washington teemed with speakeasies. It's likely that all the buildings were connected with tunnels to facilitate the delivery of illegal alcohol.
You say McCullough vacated in 2005? If so, what's there now?
Tunnels were constructed under the preschool in the McMartin Case ... then they were finally uncovered, they found satanic symbols on walls and other things. Tunnels can be constructed without much notice and an easy way to transport kids. You know I've read many articles regarding whats below Denver airport...

Maybe not bricked up at all - maybe there's a door here connecting the two buildings.
This is a further piece of evidence to support the theory that all the businesses on this corner are involved in some way.

Yes Sir! Bingo! Chairs may have changed but I am 110% positive they had red design on sides of the cushions.

it looks to be a logo of sorts = a word - if anyone recognizes it, please chip in!

Look through the doorway. It leads into Comet Pizza and in between the walls is a passageway.

The vans from this photo are parked behind the place now.

I noticed that too. It's very unsettling.
ALDO_NOVA ago
also just noticed this: the white triangle shape you see in the Comet doorway - that is THE HIDDEN DOOR!! - pushed up and the left
ArthurEdens ago
Oh shit, I wondered what that was, thought it was a support. So that's light weight door slid over and up? Makes sense to me. Good call!
ALDO_NOVA ago
exactly the white door goes up diagonal! added to the new infographic http://sli.mg/hNzVXe
ALDO_NOVA ago
HOLY SHIT THAT IS THE GAP!!!!! IT IS EMPTY NOT SOLID AND THAT WHITE DOOR IS A HIDDEN DOOR
FUCKING HELL
they used to hang photos over that door but you could still step under it

We know cpp has two floors as listed on their official city building registration. This is a fact. The underground flour is obviously now hidden.

Yes, it said 'enter through Bucks.'
There's no reason to discount the tunnels idea. The structures were built in 1932, during Prohibition, and this part of Washington teemed with speakeasies. It's likely that all the buildings were connected with tunnels to facilitate the delivery of illegal alcohol.

This is a very good point.
