Loved this tour! Phil was a great guide. He gave us much more than just the intricate design features of the buildings. He gave us history, humor, and fun little tidbits of information regarding the architects, owners, and other things that made the journey that much more interesting. Again, LOVED it! Would love taking the tour again!
