As a follow-up to last Friday’s post on ULI’s Building Healthy Places Toolkit, this montage depicts images of a dozen of the planet’s most famous and/or intriguing outdoor urban stairways. Aside from the public health benefits derived from promoting walkability, each is quite a breathtaking visual wonder to behold and a great way to enhance the urban setting with added flair. Enjoy!
