He told me he could customize a tour that included mid-century modern residential buildings in addition to the regular walking tour of downtown skyscrapers.

He picked us up at our hotel and provided an incredibly thorough tour of the city, telling us countless stories about Detroit and Grosse Pointe as we went. I was able to hop out of the car and take photos of my favorite buildings whenever I wanted. The only downside was the day had to end at some point. You will be hard pressed to find someone more knowledgeable and passionate about his city's history than John Paul. As we said goodbye I promised to repay the favor if he makes his way to Houston someday. What else can I say?!
