"farecard"
What's the longest span between vent/exit shafts?
I'm guessing the Potomac tube, but then I wondered if there was one somewhere on Teddy R's island.
Don't know what pairs are furthest apart but I would hazard a guess the Potomac River tunnels would be the furthest between shafts.
There is no shaft on Teddy Roosevelt Island as the tunnels pass under the river north of the island along the tangent of I Street west of Pennsylvania Avenue. The shafts on either side of the river are in south end of Thompson's Boat House and inside the loop ramp from southbound George Washington Parkway to Key Bridge.
Is there a list of them?
Yes, as I recall, but not a comprehensive one, I recall seeing partial lists in various contract document related to replacement and or upgrade fire standpipe.
Hell, I could probably create one from memory using google maps to identify their locations.
Some of them are marked with signs and chaining locations.
