I find that incredibly hard to believe. Assuming 4 meters per storey, you are saying that the London underground stations are at a depth of 60 meters.
If true, that's really amazing.
- wflynny 10y agoFrom [1], "Hampstead is the deepest station below the surface, at 58.5 metres (192 ft), as its surface building is near the top of a hill". So the deepest is about 60m, but from browsing around, it seems many are at least 40m deep.
