Washington Hall: Reconstructing the History of a Tallahassee Frontier Hotel
Speaker: Dr. Paulette McFadden, Public Lands Archaeology Supervisor and Law Enforcement Coordinator, Bureau of Archaeological Research
Dr. Paulette McFadden presents the results of recent archaeological investigations at the site of the Washington Hall Hotel. The hotel, which operated during the territorial period, served as a place for civic and religious activities in addition to providing room and board for guests. A fire that started at Washington Hall in 1843 was the origin of one of the most devastating disasters ever to occur in Tallahassee.
