The audio tour was available before the trip-- so I had a great glimpse of things to come. Made for excellent planning and optimal enjoyment. Please note: the Walnut Street walking Bridge was closed for renovations in October 2025. But being there was still great. I walked along the riverfront below the bridge and learned a great deal from the monuments and placards on my side trips.
