From Boudoir to Visitors Center Miss Laura's Social Club - Fort Smith, Arkansas

1 0

Published 2024-05-31

Once a prominent fixture in the local nightlife and a testament to the town's rough-and-tumble frontier days, the brothel played a controversial yet significant role in the town's social history in the developing West.

This successful repurposing of a historic brothel into a dynamic visitor's center illustrates the
power of preservation and innovation, turning a once-controversial site into a cherished cultural landmark.
