Come and explore some of NYC’s greatest architectural wonders as we take you through three major architectural periods of the 19th and twentieth centuries all within 20 square blocks of each other (Beaux Arts, Art Deco, and Neo-Gothic). On this tour you will see prime examples from these periods which include Grand Central Terminal (the finest Beaux Arts building situated right in the heart of East 42nd Street), The NBC Building aka 30 Rockefeller Plaza (an Art Deco wonder that still defies the test of time on Manhattan’s famous 5th Avenue), and St. Patrick’s Cathedral (a neo-gothic wonderland that spans a whole city block!). Other stops on this tour include Trump Tower, St. Thomas Episcopal Church, The Aeolian Building, and the Plaza Hotel in which we re-experience the grandeur of the Beaux Arts era as it applied to hotels built during that time period. There is a lunch break on this tour.
