Poll: Do you have memories of this staircase?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A century-old American staircase, likely ascended by Queen Elizabeth II, is the crowning glory for the builders of the Waikato Regional Theatre.

There’s all kinds of elements of Hamilton’s new theatre that its builders, led by Fosters Construction, will be proud of.

Possibly the most will be the 102-year-old staircase made from American oak that was among elements salvaged from the theatre’s predecessor, the old Hamilton Hotel.

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Less than half of cardiology referrals to Waikato Hospital were accepted last year, as new data paints a grim picture of people struggling to access specialist care in multiple areas.

GP representatives warn the situation is getting worse, leaving patients in “horrible" pain as they attempt to manage symptoms through primary care, or turning to private healthcare if they could afford it.
