Just upstream on the Chedoke Creek in Hamilton of the Wall of Anguish, Stairway to Paradise is vastly different than most drains. As in, it features two distinct stairways in which water cascades over in small waterfalls, designed to help minimize the impact the water would have as it descends down the escarpment.

The creek that feeds this drain should be a familiar site to anyone who has driven along Highway 403 in Hamilton... Chedoke Creek runs parallel to the highway right up until Aberdeen Ave, just as the 403 begins it's ascent up the escarpment. Acting primarily as a culvert to carry the creek under Main and King Streets, the double box tunnel (reminiscent of a subway tunnel) is uninteresting. What is interesting, however, is the branch leading off the box tunnels halfway through.

Sitting in the heart of Hamilton is an old, boarded up Classic Renaissance building, attracting attention since it stands out from the surrounding architecture. Ask anyone from Hamilton about it and they know what your are talking about... Lister Block was at one time the center of the community for Hamilton.

An Edwardian-styled hotel, located in the heart of Downtown Hamilton and boasting a rich history, the Royal Connaught is unassuming to the passerby. Closed since 2004 and sitting abandoned and partially demolished, the building has fallen on very hard times.
