Miami is a copper mining town, with a current census of 1800. At its population peak 10,000 people occupied the area. With commercial structures occupying the little available flat space, housing and schools clung to the canyon side. Stairs were used to walk to shopping, employment and school. The Merritt Street stairs go from Railroad Avenue to Merritt Street along the side of Glass Canyon. The stairs are interspersed with ramps where the terrain permits. The upper end is strictly stairs and less well developed.
