About this Tour
Every city has buildings people love, buildings people tolerate, and buildings that leave everyone asking, "Who approved that?"
On this lighthearted tour we'll explore the architecture, public art, and corporate campuses that shape the city's skyline today. Along the way we'll invent a few building nicknames of our own and discover that architecture can be just as entertaining as it is educational.
No architecture degree required…just a sense of humor!
“Isn’t that the pregnant lady building?”
