Perhaps America's most recognized urban landmark in media YET is virtually unknown to most people. It has been used in many Hollywood feature films, most notably "Blade Runner", TV shows such as "America's Most Wanted" and over one hundred car commercials worldwide. Built in 1924, the art deco "2nd Street Tunnel" in Los Angeles, California is arguably the most viewed urban land mark in America that people recognize vaguely yet the tunnel is unknown to them by name. Additional movies that have been used this tunnel include: The Driver (1978), Flashdance (1983), The Terminator (1984), Sneakers (1992), Money Talks (1997), Con Air (1997), Gattaca (1997), Independence Day (1996), and Kill Bill (2003) and countless music videos have also been shot at this location.
