Nice tour with friendly knowledgeable staff. If you enjoy architecture and walking this is for you! I had already done a boat architecture tour the previous year and this was different enough to enjoy and learn some new things. Everyone in our group was from the Chicago land area. It was fun for locals and I believe would be as well for visitors.

Our tour guide Mary Jo was very informative, she speaks with the architects about their buildings for a personal insight. Learning about how the new architecture builds off the old, how it impacts the neighborhood and the skyline is impressive. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

We had a wonderful tour experience led by Paul S. of “What’s New” in Chicago architecture. I appreciated the breadth & depth of information shared and the “stories” presented about the architects, buildings, and community spaces viewed. Great tour for Chicagoans, as well as visitors to city. Learned a lot!
