Seattle: City of Stairs
Stairway Walks Day is Saturday, February 9th! Fifteen stairway walks, in neighborhoods across Seattle and environs, will celebrate our valuable legacy of public stairs. The walks start at 10AM, with routes based on the book and led by a Feet First Neighborhood Walking Ambassador. You can still sign up over at the Feet First web site.
