Liberty Street is an abandoned and never used subway station of the Cincinnati Subway. The station is notorious for being retrofitted to be a fallout shelter capable of holding the entire population of Cincinnati. Fencing and lights were installed during this time period.[1] The station was planned in 1916, but lacked funding to complete.[2]
