Yes, there are subways in Philadelphia. We have the Broad Street Line which operates a north-south, south-north route. We also have an Elevated line that uses tunnels as well called the Market-Frankford line. It operates on a roughly East-West, West-East manner.
Lines in Philadelphia are color-coded. The Broad Street Line uses orange signage and is sometimes called the Orange Line, while the Market-Frankford line uses blue.
There are also streetcars / trams (green color code) whose routes partially operate in tunnels. Five of these lines run above ground in West Philadelphia, then merge to provide local underground service along the same route as the core of the Market-Frankford line.

What are the 3 tallest buildings in Chicago?
One of Chicago�s famous buildings is the Auditorium Building. � Designed by the famous architects/engineer: Dankmar Adler and Louis Sullivan with a staff that included the young Frank Lloyd Wright. � The building was originally designed as a luxurious hotel and opera house/theatre. � Louis Sullivan designed its decoration and is considered to be one of the creators of Art Nouveau. � Dankmar Adler is considered to be one of the great engineers of the 19th century. He also designed the theater�s acoustics; so perfect that every word on its stage could be easily heard in the top gallery six stories up and a half block away. � Frank Lloyd Wright called the theatre �the greatest room for music and opera in the world.� Enrico Caruso sang there; Richard Strauss, Sergei Prokofiev, and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov all conducted there. � It was the first new building in the world to be electrically lit and the first to be air conditioned via forced air directed over water and blocks of ice.
