Traverse City Events: The 2011 Distinctive Architecture Home Tour, September 10, presents 7 homes in the Traverse City area that range from a Euro-sleek urban loft to a Victorian carriage house. The tour trail wends from Elk Rapids to Old Mission Peninsula—and along a breathtaking spectrum of scenery that includes Lake Michigan vistas and vineyards ready for harvest. The bonus is that proceeds benefit Habitat for Humanity.

In this video Traverse City architect Michael Fitzhugh gives a sneak preview of what awaits ticket holders.
