That misleadingly named hotel does not count! If they didn't question the choice in window decor, the guests would barely be aware that it used to be a jail. No, I'm talking 21 & over!

Alfred Giles and the Ayres guys, of course it is...
and I just bought a really awesome book on Giles at the book festival this weekend, and boy they sure don't make em like they used to.
Would be great if we can pick a lot somewhere downtown as a venue for resurrecting facades of lost gems, like the previous Federal courthouse in Alamo Plaza.
I see potential in that jail, and I'm sure others do as well. And I'm not talking polished turd potential, I'm talking Miss Congeniality! Smoking hot makeover but old school personality permeates.
