Third Street Tunnel, Los Angeles, California (Google Maps ⧉, OpenStreetMap ⧉)

"Through that window I saw my first palm tree, not six feet away, and sure enough I thought of Palm Sunday and Egypt and Cleopatra, but the palm was blackish at its branches, stained by carbon monoxide coming out of the Third Street Tunnel, its crusted trunk choked with dust and sand."

"scared of the Third Street Tunnel, scared to walk through it – claustrophobia."
