The Thirty Nine Steps?


Alden stares down at the camera from one of Wellington's many "pedestrian access routes". These are vertical stairs that provide short cuts from the long and winding roads through the city. This particular walk way brags of 186 steps. Yes, Marc and Drake counted them.

It's like hardier version of Lombard Street.

Intriguing supports for that retaining wall. What's the purpose of the yellow-and-blue-striped bar? Is it part of someone's jungle gym?
