Lincoln Square Architecture + History Walking Tour - July Edition
About this Event
Details
This tour will take participants through the neighborhood to explore Lincoln Square’s rich architectural and historical character, and is the first tour of the summer. It also serves as an opportunity for Heart of Lincoln Square members who may be interested in becoming future tour guides to get involved.
We'll gather at Giddings Plaza next to Geraldine's at 10:00 AM. The first 15-30 mins will allote time for everyone to grab a 20% discounted beverage of coffee or tea from Geraldine's before the tour begins.
We would greatly appreciate a $20 donation, or to give what you can to this event, as it will go towards funding for HOLS and the Lincoln Square Neighborhood.
