sorry, couldn't contain myself. HOWEVER, one must ask: exactly how useful is it, to be directly above an ACTIVE underground tunnel? Probably not, unless you're in a sealed off or "maintenance" area of the same. Probably not.
BTW there could be a lot of "tunnels" under DC, and if the old AmerIndian stories have any merit then DC might be honeycombed with stuff older than "train tunnels". Total speculation, just sayin. Swamp creatures and stuff.
Besides the two black construction guys in basement pics, surely in the poor areas of Dc, and homeless/food shelters, temp day job sites; ones must have done work and seen tunnels and more.
True, I was thinking I wouldn't want access to an active subway tunnel. There is not much space to avoid the train. Some front cars on subway trains actually have windows so someone down in the tracks would stand out like a sore thumb. Can't remember if the DC cars have windows or not.
