McKim Building Interior Tour
<p>The entrance to the McKim building is through three double doors on Dartmouth Street across from Copley Square, where today it is used as a research library, museum, exhibition facilities, and administrative offices. At its opening in 1895 it was described as a “palace for the people” by such notables as Oliver Wendell Holmes.</p>
