It’s not a tour per se, but Open House NYC is an annual event during which tons of sites of architectural and historic interest all over NY open their doors for tours, events, lectures, or simple visits. They also hold other events on occasion throughout the year, such as an architectural boat tour around Manhattan.
This years Open House is scheduled for October 6th and 7th of 2012. It promises to be pretty awesome.
There’s at least a couple of options, actually.
-
aplusnyc – they run art and architecture tours by design professionals – "a member of Guiding Architects, an international network for architectural guided tours by professionals."
-
Around Manhattan Official NYC Architecture Tour – "an educational around-Manhattan architecture tour, hosted by architects and members of the American Institute of Architects New York Chapter (AIANY)." – by yacht, nonetheless!
Finally, there’s a handy thread on Lonely Planet about this – a couple of years back, to be fair, but with a few more handy links that might serve as back up options, including self-guided tours.
