Walking around Traverse City, you know them…but you don't know the stories BEHIND them. I'm talking about just a few of the many well-known buildings in the area.

We spoke with Jack Lane, realtor and host of the long-running talk show "Ask the Real Estate Guy," as well as a former history columnist for the Traverse City Record-Eagle; Diane Baribeau, Executive Director of City Opera House; and Chrissine Cairns, Marketing Director of Sleder's Family Tavern.
