Central city departure locations, easy to locateAll too often we miss the finer points, we miss the magic and we miss the efforts that have been made to set something apart or to tell a story.

TalkWalk encourages and instructs you to look around, look up, look down, to notice where you are, and to espy those intricacies. The best way to understand a place is to immerse yourself and experience it, to explore in greater detail – and even better, to do it with a knowledgeable guide.

Behind the façade of the glass skyscrapers and the downtown buzz, there beats a heart, and a fascinating public art gallery awaits discovery and attention. Walk right up and walk the talk.
