I heard the rumors that the underground got on fire recently. I told them I don't think so. Maybe they are misunderstood because in the past, there was the biggest fire. That is what I know of. I planning go on this tour on my vacation this summer.

I just find out on www.king5.com. There was a fire at the Pioneer Square on 2nd yesler street. It was at the market that got on fire. So I knew it had nothing to do with underground tour.

No not recently, the fire was in 1889 and caused all of this area in Seattle to burn down. After the city was rebuilt and the old city entombed. It is a 90 minute walking tour, it starts in Doc Maynards Saloon, then into pioneer squarebefore plunging underground. The tour ends in the Rogue Gallery a giftshop/museum type store. There is also an underground cafe if you get hungry. Times in June are M-F at 10, 11, 1, 2, 4, and 6. S and S the same as well as a noon tour
in JULY and AUGUST M_S 10,11,12,1,2,3,4,5,6 pm

You are right. Underground is as it has been since it opened as a tourist attraction.
In 1889, Seattle had its greatest fire (caused by a kitchen grease fire) which burned much of the city to the ground. Rather than removing the remains of the city to build a new one, they built the new city on top of the old one. The old one is now what is called "Underground Seattle."
