Taft Tunnel

Taft Tunnel is an escape tunnel from the Jefferson Memorial. The exit point is a sewer grate outside the Citadel entrance, just south of the west point of Arlington Memorial bridge. These tunnels were most likely used as a secret escape route for pre-War political figures occupying the Pentagon, but Chinese weaponry and items, including rifles, pistols and clothing, alongside a ham radio and other bits of technology, lend credence to it being occupied by Chinese spies.

Layout
The initial tunnel leads to an open room with many feral ghouls and some radioactive barrels. From there, you go down another tunnels which opens to a room with two doors. The one on the left has a very hard terminal that Dr. Li must hack to open the door in front. The door on the left is populated by Enclave soldiers. Once the front door is opened, there is another tunnel with door ways on the left that have nothing of value and a door on the right that you go through. Then there's another tunnel that leads down. From there, there's another door on the right that leads to a Brotherhood of Steel paladin using a flamer against feral ghouls. From there, you head to the right and up the ladder to the entrance of the Citadel.

Inhabitants
In the lower levels, you will encounter a number of feral ghouls, while the floors above have many Enclave soldiers, and it was once occupied by Chinese spies.

Appearances
Taft Tunnel appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes
