Reviews

Fascinating!
Tamara_C, 29-11-2022
An inside view of a key moment in US history when industry and modernity were celebrated with lavishly designed skyscrapers. Jeremy described the care that went into these buildings and the effort to preserve them.
A must do tour if you like art deco.

Very informative tour! We saw wonderful art deco buildings and some of their lobbies. The guide was very good at helping us see details that we might never have noticed on our own.

A gem of a tour

We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide's depth of knowledge of architecture and its history was impressive and made the tour so special. We learned the stories of what inspired the design of the buildings and what was going on in the world at the time of the design and construction.

Even though we had visited some of the more well-known buildings before, we saw them in a whole new light. In addition, we learned about some lesser known buildings - some of which were more beautiful than the well-known ones. From a logistics perspective, our guide was punctual and also masterful at leading us through the city.

I highly recommend this tour.
Very nice walk with...
