Chicago’s downtown pedestrian way system, the Pedway, lies in the heart of
the city. This system of underground tunnels and overhead bridges links more
than 40 blocks in the Central Business District, covering roughly five
miles.
Used by tens of thousands of pedestrians each day, the Pedway connects to
public and private buildings, CTA stations and commuter rail facilities.
Development of the Pedway began in 1951, when the City of Chicago built one-

n**d 发帖数: 9764 | 2 So you’re likely wondering, where are these tunnels now? Well most of them
are still there. The tunnels were used until 1959 when they were vacated as

and communication lines, and other parts have been transformed into the
tunnels for the red and blue lines. None of the tunnels have been used for
the Pedway system, which does not go as far below ground level. Since they
are so securely sealed up, it is unlikely that any... 阅读全帖 |

Beneath the skyscrapers of Chicago there is an unseen world that many
Chicagoans are unaware of. Hidden deep below the skyscrapers of Chicago’s
Loop are underground freight tunnels. I have personally heard stories that
these tunnels exist, but I always assumed them to be a myth. I certainly did
