The brainchild of Lamar Hunt, Dallas native, founder of the American Football League, and former owner of the Dallas Texans, (which he moved to Kansas City as the AFL Chiefs franchise in 1967), SubTropolis is a brilliant reuse of a former limestone mine (which mine was owned by Hunt).
With over 5 MILLION square feet of leasable underground office and industrial space, Subtropolis is the world's largest underground business complex.
