I spent many years living down about 2 blocks from the Davenport Hotel, I got to get up close and personal with the Restoration the Walt and Karen Worthy have done to it. I've met Walt and Karen and have had the pleasure of telling them what a wonderful job they where and are still doing with the Davenport Hotel. I have a personal history also with this building I'm looking to find the nitty gritty of the times before 1980 when I was born. So If your an Old Timer Wise and Learned in this Matter I want to hear all the old stories and Memories.

Thanks so much.
