Holland Tunnel ventilation tower, New York City


This ten-story concrete blockhouse, on the other hand, is quite easy to identify: it is one of the two ventilation towers for the Holland Tunnel, exchanging air to keep the commuters beneath the river from suffocating. Wherever you find long, heavily trafficked tunnels, look for air exchangers like these hovering above the surface nearby.
