TIPS ON NAVIGATING
- The access points, which are inside buildings or from the sidewalk, will help you understand how to find the passages.
- If going inside a building, you usually need to go underground. Look for an el-evator or escalator which is almost al-ways marked with the word “Pedway” or the Pedway symbol, pictured here.
- Remember that in Section 1 it is impossible to clarify street level or underground because the ground level itself changes.
- Remember that Sunday is not a great day for Pedway wanderings.
These three separate Pedways do not directly connect. All are accessible via street level.

This entire block covers train tracks below.
This area was left undeveloped as old train tracks for 40+ years until 1967. The empty pit here will likely include a Pedway connector in the future.

This is the most complex section of the Pedway, as both the levels of the Pedway and the ground level outside change. Underneath your feet are more layers: electrical wires, skyscraper caissons, sewage tunnels, abandoned freight train tunnels, and the list goes on...
