I was surprised on a Thursday at 11:00 a.m. there was 23 on the tour. Ages varied from 9 to 90. It was informative and made me wonder why this information is not more commonly known in Springfield. The guide was personable and willing to answer questions. Stairs and only two times do you have the opportunity to sit during the tour. I am a local and this was my first time visiting. I would recommend if your relatives come to visit or you are looking for something different to do in Springfield. All four of us felt it was a pleasant surprise compared to our expectations. Ages 60 -90 and we are family even thought TripAdvisor thinks family must include young or teen children. Photos not allowed during the tour accept two locations.

Old photos, history, story of structure. Would like to have seen actual living quarters, bathroom facilities of early residents.
