This staircase doesn’t actually go anywhere, but it’s worth expending energy to navigate it just for the experience and the views. ‘Endless Stair’ by dRMM is a temporary sculpture consisting of a series of single staircases interlocking with each other in a maze-like arrangement. Some paths will lead to the top, others will end prematurely.
