Urban pedestrian footpaths are sometimes called [[alleys]] or lanes and in older cities and towns in Europe and are often what is left of a medieval street network or rights-of-way or ancient footpaths. Similar paths also exist in some older North American towns and cities, like [[Charleston, South Carolina]], [[New Castle, Delaware]], and [[Pittsburgh]], Pennsylvania. Such urban trails or footpaths are narrow, usually paved and often between the walls of buildings. This type is usually short and straight, and on steep ground can consist partially or entirely of steps. Some are named. Because of geography [[stairs|steps]] are a common form of footpath in hilly cities and towns. This includes Pittsburgh (see [[Steps of Pittsburgh]]), [[Cincinnati]] (see [[Steps of Cincinnati]]), [[Seattle]],<ref>{{Cite web |title=Seattle Stairway Walks |url=http://www.seattlestairwalks.com/ |url-status=live |access-date=7 February 2021 |website=seattlestairwalks.com |archive-date=1 November 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191101202223/http://www.seattlestairwalks.com/ }}</ref> and San Francisco<ref>{{Cite web |title=Stairways of San Francisco |url=http://www.sisterbetty.org/stairways/ |url-status=live |access-date=7 February 2021 |website=sisterbetty.org |archive-date=26 April 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200426001201/http://www.sisterbetty.org/stairways/ }}</ref> in the United States, as well as Hong Kong,<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-07-15/two-architects-explore-the-microeconomy-of-hong-kong-s-alleyways |title=Linda Poon, "The Roots of Hong Kong's Identity Are in Its Back Alleys",July 15, 2016, Bloomberg.com |website=[[Bloomberg News]] |date=15 July 2016 |access-date=7 February 2021 |archive-date=7 November 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201107234934/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-07-15/two-architects-explore-the-microeconomy-of-hong-kong-s-alleyways |url-status=live }}</ref> [[Quebec City]], Quebec, Canada,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Quebec: a poor man's Europe |url=http://www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~rcollins/travel/Quebec.html |url-status=live |access-date=7 February 2021 |website=ndsu.edu |archive-date=7 March 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200307161102/https://www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~rcollins/travel/Quebec.html }}</ref> and [[Rome]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=5 Interesting Steps to Rome |url=http://italiannotes.com/5-steps-to-rome/ |url-status=live |access-date=7 February 2021 |website=italiannotes.com |date=29 June 2011 |archive-date=15 April 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200415022147/https://italiannotes.com/5-steps-to-rome/ }}</ref> [[Stairway]] trails are found in a number of hilly American cities.
