A tunnel entrance at the Baudelaire Mansion.
The V.F.D. tunnels are a network of passages under the City connecting the homes of various organization members to each other, such as the Baudelaires, Snickets, Quagmires, etc. It was most likely created for the noble purpose of volunteer travel but was later also used as a method of escape by Count Olaf on one of his many schemes.
