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.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
