the tunnels and caves, John is talking about the New York City subway system. One good piece of evidence for this is the "temple" that has all kinds of stars across the ceiling. A mighty temple it must have been, for the roof was painted like the sky at night with its stars — that much I could see, though the colors were faint and dim. It went down into great caves and tunnels—perhaps they kept their slaves there.

The building that he is referring to is Grand Central Station. Its ceiling is decorated with stars and other celestial items. It descends a long way and leads to a plethora of train and subway tunnels.
