Attendees were presented with how the project was brought to fruition as well as the different components of the project that enabled the rebirth of this historic building, including architecture, historic preservation, finance, construction and development. Following the presentation, guests received a personalized tour of the Electric Tower including the first and second floor lobby, the historic seventh floor, and several of the uniquely designed "tower" floors.
