A lot of them still standing and in business. Tucson's most famous hotel has to be the Hotel Congress which owes much of its fame to it's association to John Dillinger, and has a few resident "ghosts".

I used to live in Tucson, AZ and had been by there many times, but never got a chance to go in and explore it.
The Old Train Station Always gave me the Shivers.
I got real cold going anywhere near there.

I would one day, like to go back, just to see the John Dillinger Stuff.
Go into the Train Station, it is quite "interesting."

As is the Dillinger House located on 2nd st. between Speedway and University. It was here where JD was captured in 1934. The home is now a B&B. Here's a photo.

OMG! I went past there on an almost daily basis when I lived in that City!
I thought there was an Energy drawing me near it!
Wow! Great Photo and Thanks!
I will be sure to make it one of my Stops if I go back to Visit that place again.

Well, I think, since I have a sort of "connection" with Outlaws, then I think it was more of someone just wanting to visit and tell their side of the Story, not like the Press told it.
Kind of like, "come on in, set a spell, let's talk over Tea and Cookies."

Come on, girl! You know those outlaws weren't about to just have tea and cookies -- a fifth of Jim Beam would be more like it for those fellas!

Seriously, that is a great pic and it looks like it would be a fantastic place to stay. I love staying at B&B's and old hotels! You just never know who you might be sharing a room with.

I know, it was just the "impression" that I got.
The harder guys were staying in the Background. This was more of a Hospitable Feminine Energy that I think I was picking up upon.
A Female Energy holds the harder ones at bay.
She "rules the Roost," so to speak.
