it looks great with this old style. Its interesting that the hotel was renovated as a public-private project!
Perfect photo down to the crooked lampshade.
Looks like they preserved the 1837 style! Very elegant...
Is Water Street on the water?
Hi Isabella, Yes, Water Avenue is parallel to the Alabama River. The hotel's back terrace and balconies look out over the river, and there is a nice view of the Pettus Bridge. Thanks. for visiting.
Hi Zsolt, thanks for visiting. I love its old style too!
Abe, no wonder you are such a superb photographer. Nothing gets past your eagle eyes!
