The Tunnel Yard Sale

The people who live above Hay Street clear out their apartments all at once, in the same place, on the biggest walking night of the month — in the covered passage under 300 Hay Street.

Finding it

Walk in from the Hay Street sidewalk through the tall brick archway
The archway is numbered 325, directly under the round “300 Hay” sign
Ground level, no stairs — look for the chalkboard sign out front
On Hay at Maxwell, just north of the Arts Council
Across the street from Stevie’s on Hay and Blue Moon Café

Why it is worth the walk

A dozen sales in one lit corridor instead of a morning of driving
Covered and open at both ends — shade off a late-August evening, and rain does not cancel it
Hay and Maxwell close to cars at 4 PM, so you walk right up
Apartment-sized finds: clothing racks, books, framed art, lamps, glassware, small tables

Good to know

Bring small bills — assume cash, and haggling is expected
Level concrete the whole way, no steps or curbs
The rear of the passage stays clear as a resident walkway
A private, resident-organized sale — not on city property, and not part of Cool Spring Downtown District’s official 4th Friday programming
