Curious Minds Exploring Local Architectural Gems

I started this group because I have always been fascinated by the history and design hidden in plain sight throughout our city. Whether it is a forgotten storefront downtown, a unique residential neighborhood, or a piece of civic architecture that most people walk past without noticing, there is so much to learn about how our local environment was built and why it looks the way it does today.

This is a casual space for anyone who enjoys walking, observing, and discussing the built environment. We meet up to visit different sites, share what we know, and learn from one another. You do not need to be an architect or a historian to join; you just need to have an interest in looking a little closer at the places where we live and work. I look forward to exploring these gems with you.
