Explore Downtown Tampa Architecture On QR Code Tour

AIA Tampa Bay is hosting an architect-led walking tour of downtown Tampa's unique architecture on Friday, Oct. 5, from noon to 1 p.m. The one-hour tour, beginning at Lykes Gaslight Square Park in downtown Tampa, will include five to six historically significant buildings that contribute to the city's sense of place. The event is free and open to the public. Participants can start the tour by visiting Tour Tampa Bay Architecture, where they will find maps of the sites and pictures showing where the QR codes can be found. Some codes are obscure, whereas others stand out on windows and can be found while passing by. The website also includes historic sites in Ybor City and Hyde Park.
