    • found: Wikipedia, Sept. 24, 2010(The Mount Baker Tunnel or Mount Baker Ridge Tunnel carries Interstate 90 under the Mount Baker neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. It is actually a group of four tunnels that carry eight lanes of freeway traffic, plus a separate tunnel for bicycles and pedestrians. The two originals are twin tunnel bores completed in 1940 and rehabilitated in 1993. Two double-decked tunnels and the bicycle/pedestrian tunnel were built north of the original tunnels in 1991. The entire tunnel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), ID #82004243. The east portals of the tunnel, along with the Lacey V. Murrow Bridge, are an official City of Seattle landmark.)
