<p>Clearing the smoke of the legend and speculation, the long-lost <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobble_Hill_Tunnel">Cobble Hill Subway Tunnel</a> was rediscovered years ago by Brooklyn urban explorer and transit enthusiast Bob Diamond.</p>
<p>Located under Atlantic Avenue in Cobble Hill, Diamond proved many experts wrong when he investigated the tunnel himself, and rediscovered the first subway tunnel ever built in America. Many came for Diamond's official tours of the tunnel to investigate the mystery for themselves, but returned time and time again for the draw of Diamond's surreal discovery story. Diamond is no longer allowed in the tunnel, outraging many as he had 32 years with not a single incident.</p>

<p>Bob Diamond was a 20-year-old engineer when he discovered the Atlantic Avenue subway tunnel. After 30 years, he's no longer allowed to go inside.</p>

<p>In New York City, dancers are about as abundant as overpriced coffee. It's not uncommon to see 'bunheads' rushing to class, and many city dwellers are patrons of a variety of dance performances. That's why Omar Robles' unique <a href="http://www.omarrobles.com/Dancers">dance portraits</a> are even more breathtaking; the photographer takes two commonalities, dancers and cityscapes, and combines them for a fresh new art. </p>
<p>Shooting dancers on piers, crosswalks, underpasses, bridges, and subways, the photographer has skillfully combined the beautiful lines signature to ballet dancers and the unapologetic urban scenery associated with the big apple. His talent has earned him a significant following on various social media, where you can find his portraits at <a href="https://instagram.com/omarzrobles">@omarzrobles</a> or his captivating <a href="https://omarrobles.com">website.</a></p>
<p>Robles boldly reminds us that art, inspiration, and strength are quite literally around every corner. Taking a New York minute to observe and appreciate the creative atmosphere the city provides could lead us all to more noteworthy encounters and experiences, possibly even with Omar himself.</p>
