Taft Tunnel

This is an escape tunnel from Jefferson Memorial. The exit point is a sewer grate outside the Citadel entrance, just south of the west point of Arlington Memorial Bridge.


 * The tunnel can't be reached before the final steps of the quest "The Waters of Life".


 * The unreachable floors with Enclave soldiers can't be reached from any point, bare cheating. The exit point has a ladder and a sewer grate that doesn't work (you can open the ladder, then close it again if it pleases you). It seems unfinished.


 * The first part of the tunnels contains a copy of Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual on the desk in the room when you first engage the Enclave Soldiers. There is also a copy of Nikola Tesla and You to be found in the second area behind a portable generator on a desk along with a bottle of Nuka-Cola Quantum.


 * Note that Charon will be waiting at the door connecting the two parts of the area -on the side with the ladder to the Wasteland- should he disappear after the quest involving the rescue of the science team.

Inhabitants

 * The lower levels have a fair share of Feral Ghouls.
 * The floors above have many Enclave Soldiers.
