They are also promoting bicycle rentals, and the same applies. Nice glass buildings full of bikes, but I have never seen a customer actually go in and rent one during the 60 minutes or so I have been near enough to observe one.
I've seen them used for one hour guided tours in Philadelphia along the East River Boat Houses and in San Antonio at the Alamo. I think about $65 for an hour tour.
