5.00This tour was awesome! With this tour you get to see so many details and secrets and history that you'd never have found otherwise. I loved seeing the mechanical horse racing machine, the chihuly glass, the massive neon signs, and all the cool history in the area. I got a lot of context for how the area changed over time which makes the present even more interesting. Thanks Jordan for making this a great tour!
