Around town, Santa Fe





I didn't catch the name of this church, but it has a famous story. If you look at the picture below you see the staircase going to the second floor. The church didn't have the money for to get to the second floor. An unknown man came in and for 6 months built this staircase. He used wood that was unfamiliar and then vanished. The original design didn't have railing. The stairs make two 360 degree turns. Engineers come in and marvel at the design. They are puzzled at how it was used and how it doesn't collapse. It's currently roped off and unused.
