An old Hotel in the process of being rebuilt

This is in Prairie du Chien. I was in town on other business and was amazed at the number of impressive old buildings in the area.

Sorry some of these are so blurry. I'm not a photographer.

Yup. I've been there before. That place has been "in the process of being rebuilt" for years. I like that whole riverfront area. Very cool

Glad you got inside. I've seen the place many times when I'm out driving around the area...never went inside though. It has to be one of the oldest neighborhoods in the region. It's too bad most of it is now an empty grid of streets.

I want to be different. But I want to be different just like everybody else, because if I really were different, everybody would think I was crazy and weird.

Iowa is Minnesota's bitch. There's an art to pooping.

This is/was going to be a hotel? Huh, doesn't look very hotel like. But the brick structure is still incredibly in tact, do you know any history about this building? Sounds like work is going pretty slow.

I don't know anything about it and come to think of it I was told it was a hotel by someone who also probably doesn't really know either. It does have a lot of chimneys. That seems at least a little hotel like to me.

Anyway, I'm glad people in PDC care about at least a couple of their old buildings

This is the Dousman House Hotel. It's named after Hercules Dousman and was built in 1864.

This article has lotsa good stuff about this area.
