Cameron Village to open underground for one night
Underground Raleigh - officially known as the Village Subway - was one of Raleigh's hottest spots from the 1970s and into the 1980s.
Posted — UpdatedUnderground Raleigh – officially known as the Village Subway – was one of the city's hottest spots from the 1970s and into the 1980s. It was a subterranean set of nightclubs, restaurants and an arcade under the Raleigh shopping center.
By 1984, worries about the fire code and customer safety meant the Subway's days were numbered. The Cameron Village Merchants Association said back then that it was negotiating with a major retailer interested in the space, but that retailer never came.
The abandoned spot has been a hot topic on the Internet.
