The tour offers people a chance to walk through some of Norcross' most notable homes.

This year's tour features five homes around the Norcross downtown area. There are three historic homes with one dating back to 1859. The other two were designed in the early 1900's. Those taking part in the tour will get to see how these homes have been restored with their historical significance kept intact.
