[OSM-newbies] A road going through a building

I actually meant a road that is surrounded on all three sides by the
building, on the left hand side, above and on the right hand side. I
guess the consensus was that it should be tagged as a tunnel. If it is
surrounded on only two sides, above and on either side, is it still a
tunnel?
