Motti Seligson, a spokesperson for Chabad, said a "group of extremist students" had secretly broken through the walls of vacant building behind the headquarters, creating an underground passage beneath a row of office buildings and lecture halls that eventually connected to the synagogue. [...] The property’s manager brought in a construction crew Monday to fix the damaged walls, leading to a standoff with those who wanted the passageway to remain.
I'm sorry, wtf? While admittedly cool, wtf do you need a secret passageway through the basements of multiple buildings into your synagogue? And they completely gloss over what we on the other end of the secret passage - was it hidden behind a dumpster, a fake wall inside a speakeasy, someone's basement?
