The notorious Gipps Street steps on the Yarra trail have been demolished.
Contractors for Parks Victoria got the deed done this week.
No tears were shed. No politicians were photographed.
The steps are being replaced by a glorious, curved ramp that will be an attraction in itself in the years ahead.
A detour is in place while works proceed. You can see the map here.
