Well, we have our staircase back! The Downing to Herron staircase has re-opened. So for all of you folks that have been taking the long way around, this will be great news! For all of you crazy people that were using the staircase even when the landing was missing and the staircase was barricaded and there was yellow caution tape everywhere, I’m so glad none of you broke your necks. Really.

It was such a nice day for the re-opening too! Sunny, but not too warm. Perfect for a sweat-free climb to the top of the staircase. Look at that landing!

It’s a great place to enjoy the views from Polish Hill —

So, we’ll see you on the staircases!
