Three First National Plaza
Abandoned Pedway: First
National Bank Building, now
called “Chase Tower,” once had
Pedway here connecting with
Three First National Plaza.
Not Exactly the Pedway:
If you enter the red or blue line CTA
stations between Washington and
Jackson (just south of Monroe), the
underground platforms continue the
entire length of three blocks.

Chase Tower
More layers to the city: The basement
of Chase Tower has a large cafeteria
and below that, an auditorium that
hosts NPR’s “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell
Me” news show.

TIPS ON NAVIGATING
PEDWAY KEY
Underground Pedway
1
Street Level or Above Pedway
- After entering a building or station,
you usually need to go underground
to find the Pedway. Look for an
elevator or escalator, and signs
for the Pedway, often this symbol:

from sidewalks.

PEDWAY HOURS
Hours depend on the building attached to
the passage. Roughly half of the Pedway is
closed on the weekend, and open sections
are indicated on this map. Unless otherwise marked, assume Mon-Fri 7am-7pm,
closed Sat and Sun, with Pedway in government buildings open Mon-Fri 6am-6pm.

- In Section 1 of this map it is
impossible to fully clarify street level
or underground because the street
level outside buildings often changes.
2
- Sunday is not a great day for Pedway
wanderings as many parts are closed.

left undeveloped as old train

The Maze of the Pedway: This is the most complex section of the Pedway, as both
the levels of the Pedway and the ground level outside buildings change. Imagine
that underneath your feet are more layers: electrical wires, skyscraper caissons,
sewers, abandoned freight train tunnels, and the list goes on...
