The Bok Building is open from 9-5pm and the main floors are occupied by a variety of artist and retail studios ( individual rooms / studios have varying hours that may or may not be open to public ). Architecture of the building has been preserved, so really neat to check out before heading up to the roof for drinks or dinner.
