Tour 1 is to the Bundy Museum of History and Art .

"In 1889, two brothers, Willard Bundy a jeweler and inventor, and Harlow E. Bundy, a young entrepreneur, opened a time recording clock company in downtown Binghamton. By the turn of the 20^th century, thousands of workers were clocking in and out of work on Bundy Time Recorders. The company flourished, moved to Endicott, and eventually became IBM. The Bundy Museum seeks to not only honor the accomplishments of Binghamton‘s entrepreneurs like the Bundys, but also pays respects to the culture that influenced them. The collection ranges from early manufacturing and broadcasting artifacts to international art designed to enrich local culture. Local entrepreneurs, artists and personalities are showcased."

The Bundy Museum has a variety of exhibits to check out.  Everything from time recording clocks, to art galleries, and it even has a complete barbershop that was originally located two blocks away from the IBM factory.
