Downtown tunnels and Chase Building

Does anyone know how to get

into the downtown tunnels and what

hours they are open? What is down there?

Shops and restaurants?

Also can you go to the observation point

of the Chase tower or do you need a ticket

or tour? What hours can you do this?

What is a good restaurant to eat in at downtown?

Downtown tunnels and Chase Building

In terms of the Downtown Tunnels, you can easily start at Macy%26#39;s by taking the escalators down. There are maps to guide you around. Hours are basically normal business hours, though most of the eating places close around 2p or 3p after the lunch crowds have died down. You can go from Macy%26#39;s to the Shops at Houston Center underground. The new Houston Pavilions is not connected to the Underground.

In terms of restaurants, I like Mia Bella, Les Givrals, McCormick %26amp; Schmidt, Vic %26amp; Anthony%26#39;s, and Erma%26#39;s. House of Blues sounds interesting and have yet to try The Grove at Discovery Green.

You can get down to the tunnel from any building. They used to be open from 6:00A till 10:00 or 11:00P. That said after about 6:00P most of the stores close - and yes shops and restaurants. You do not need a ticket - can go the observation on the Wells Fargo building (about the 60th floor) or the Chase building (don%26#39;t remember the floor). Top floor of the Wells Fargo building is a private club / restaurant (hopefully still is). If you are talking tunnel - treebeards, Beck%26#39;s Prime - I have heard the brekfast Klub is supposed to be good (never been there) - then off tunnel like the Grove, Vic %26amp; Anthony%26#39;s, Cabo%26#39;s, Sambuca (personally I don%26#39;t but every one seems to like it)

Thanks for the info!

Look forward to navigating the tunnels!
