"Amazing tour! Trevor did an incredible job -
the tour was highly informative, fascinating, and the 3 hours flew by. We were so inspired by everything we saw and learned that weeks later I am still researching the architects, buying books, and hunting down places by same/similar architects in our hometown." - Yelp
