It was just announced that Prince's Paisley Park estate is being readied to open for public tours on October 6, 2016. The tours will be operated by Graceland Holdings; the same company that runs Elvis' Graceland home.
Millions of Prince fans from around the world will get the chance to tour the 65,000 square-foot complex in the Minneapolis suburb of Chanhassen, where Prince died. The Trust handling the estate has applied to rezone the property so it can function as a museum.
Prince’s sister, Tyka Nelson is very pleased with the plans; saying, “Opening Paisley Park is something that Prince always wanted to do and was actively working on.” She added, “Only a few hundred people have had the rare opportunity to tour the estate during his lifetime.”
The tour will be limited to the first floor; but the studio where he recorded most of his albums, the performance stage and practice rooms, will be included. The video below, will give you a glimpse at his private living space.

That's a great idea. It will bring a lot of tourism to the state, generate income, and allow fans the opportunity to see that amazing looking studio up close. Thanks for the interesting post.
