There's one in SKinker DeBaliviere from 58/5900 Waterman to Pershing to the alley. It's blocked, not surprisingly. There's one operational from Gresham north to Rhodes between Hampton and January. Some fragments from Bancroft to Chippewa. Anyone know of others?

a very random one in Afton where Pavia Ave turns into a mid-block sidewalk between Brinker Ave and Charlton Ln:

There’s a walkway connecting Alamo Ave. to Clayton Rd in the Hi-Pointe/DeMun neighborhood.

One of my favorite obscure walkways is not a sidewalk but a tunnel in U. City  underneath Forest Park Parkway that connects Wellesley Ave and Westmoreland Ave.- a scrappy survivor from the streetcar age.

I also recently discovered an underground passageway...this one connecting Francis Place to Shaw Park under 170:

My old hood! I witnessed more than one police chase down that path. One on foot and on with the cops in pursuit in a helicopter.

UCity has numerous.  There is one between 7200 blocks of Westmoreland and Maryland, just west of the tunnel under the FPP.  Another one connects the 7300 block of Pershing to7300 block Westmoreland. Another one goes from 7300 Westmoreland to Maryland but is not lined up with the one to Pershing.  Also University Hills subdivision has a longer walkway that goes from Warren Ave all the way to Bedford, crossing Stanford and Purdue.  Another goes from the 7200 block of Kingsbury, along the same path as Wellesley, north to Delmar and connecting to the dead-end of Washington (this one is guarded by residents though and at one point had a gate with a code). Also, there's what used to be an alley/Asbury Ave that connects Northmoor all the way to Wydown.
