Homeless Man Found Living In Elaborate Underground Home

[archerships]

A homeless contractor known as the “mole man” dug a multi-room 200-square foot home underground in Fresno that surprised police when they recently stumbled upon a hidden entrance.

The home had a bed, a leak-proof roof, a kitchen and escape hatch, Local 6 reported.

Tracy said it took him about 2 months with a shovel and other tools to carve out the underground rooms.

More pictures are available at the website.

Fresno's only (as far as I know) tourist attraction is also underground housing, but 100 years old, see http://www.forestiere-historicalcenter.com/

Thanks! I'm a big fan -- the "mole man of fresno" is one of my unique (so far) interests.

i saw this in someone elses journal earlier and i've got to say, the title seems to contradict itself.

Agreed.

Not really, it's going to get demolished.

Looking at pictures of a homeless man's home is a bit like meeting a bald man's hairstylist.
