  1. Brilliant and thank you Debie Cox. I’m so happy to have found this place. William Strickland (the Capitol architect) lived at the City Hotel until his death in 1854. For some time I wanted to know more about that space and location. The Davidson County Court House article and City Hotel Article brings a smile. Looking forward to more discoveries on this site.
