We were skimming 1010WINS when we saw this headline Spitzer Energy Adviser Resigns Amid Threat Investigation. What? An energy adviser was involved in the plot to discredit State Senator Joseph Bruno? But actually it's something nuttier:

National Geographic has the most informative New York diagram that we've seen in lo these many years we've been working on Gothamist. It shows what is under the city streets-- both in a compressed, annotated form, and in a full-scale version (who knew the water tunnel was so deep underground? Stop lying, you totally didn't!) Definitely click around the diagram-- there's lots of delicious NYC facts embedded in the descriptions. For instance:
