History

The Hiram Street Steps in Mount Auburn lead from Corporation Alley up through a neighborhood that grew substantially after the opening of the Mount Auburn Incline in 1872. The steps are part of a ridge-spanning pedestrian network connecting Mount Adams and Mount Auburn, once used daily by workers, shoppers, and families living on the hillsides above the commercial streets of the basin.
