They're chock full of various utilities. Data/fiber optic lines, chilled water lines, etc. Part of the reason downtown Chicago is such a hub for business is the great data connections afforded by the tunnels. The whole downtown area can be wired up with the fastest speeds at relatively low cost and no disruption to the streets.
Even if they were totally empty though, they'd barely be big enough for two people to pass each other walking. And they're full of blind corners, so have fun dodging the muggers.
