- Whatʻs the next step for the Stairs? The future of The Haʻikū Stairs has been fiercely debated for years. Also known as the Thousand Steps or the Stairway to Heaven, the long, narrow step structures make for a stunningly beautiful hike, high up a Windward Oʻahu ridge, providing panoramic views often posted on social media. The hike is both popular and illegal. Residents in a nearby Kāneʻohe neighborhood have endured the trespassers and their noise for many years. The current owner of most of the land under the deteriorating stairs, the Honolulu Board of Water Supply, wants to free itself of the liability and tear down the stairs - or transfer responsibility.

Transfer to the parks and open it to the public
I remember driving near it as a kid, the thought of people going always scared me do to how dangerous it is. And I heard stories that that people died falling off or needing to be rescued by helicopter. But I’m not sure how true these are. So I used to think of it as “that creepy old house across the road”
is not scary at all I went down the stairs almost running lol
How in depth is the renovation/repair? Complete renovation or just repair of the problem spots?
I'm simply asking how much of a "renovation" because 1 million dollars seems excessive for a basic repair and I'm a metalworker/welder so I'm curious.
Saving the Board of Water Supply from the spending seems worth it either way.
