the Dugan-Stuart Building

The Dugan-Stuart building, Hot Springs, AR, USA, built in 1904 to house medical offices, then converted into a hotel in the 40's, and later on luxury apartments. It has been uninhabited since the early 1980's, with several old appliances remaining in some of the rooms. The ornate, early 20th century architecture and design is still eye-catching, with mosaic tiles and D & S initials engraved into door handles, much of the interior is reminiscent of the bustling 1940's hotel that it once was. They really don't build them like this anymore, with such attention to detail. There was also a bowling alley underground once used by the gangsters that roamed around Hot Springs such as Al Capone and Lucky Luciano, however all that remains is the 90-year old scoreboard.
