In the mid 1980's the MTU Student Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers prepared plans and specifications for the restoration of the East Hancock Stairway Park. The City of Hancock used $10,000 of Community Development Block Grant funds to pay for the restoration by Bruce Lahti Construction.There is a granite slab on the east side at the top of the stairway that tells part of the History of the Stairway and the Restoration Project.
