  • By Clay Leonard
    Excellent free historical site of one of the City's socialites making major contributions to the sciences. A great time capsule of a past era. Well worth the visit.
  • By Theresa Sadowski Moore
    We took the extended tour to the upper floors. Our guide took us through one locked door after another. The archives are simply amazing. It was so overwhelming that we completely forgot to take pictures!
