"Stairs to Nowhere" (UW campus)

"Stairs to Nowhere" was designed by UW architecture students from the elements of a former construction staging area. This 1988 piece is even more relevant to Seattle today, as more and more of its buildings are demolished, revamped or constructed. A temporary stairway allows us to move from building to building, but when this stairway is still, it could become a monument to either aspiration or failure. Questions to ask yourself in this site: What are your hopes and dreams, your risings and fallings, your regrets and your reinventions?
