What To Expect

We start the tour at our community centre where we introduce ourselves ourselves and illustrate the relevance of our location. Our guides will take you through a chronological journey, helping better understand the building's history and context.

We will go through the early days of grand opulence, government red-lining and social oppression. We will also detail the stories of urban decay and the building's resilient nature through complex economic times.

After we have provided you with context we will take a stroll through the neighborhood to meet the locals
.
You will enjoy a drink & lunch on the 51st floor of the building to complement the experience.
