Main Street Arkansas Interior Design Consultant Susan Shaddox met with new property owners of the historic Avenue Hotel in downtown Texarkana this week. The old place has been boarded up for years, but don't let its shady looks deceive you--it's a gem inside. Interior features include original tile floors, transom windows, gorgeous wood finishes, the old receptionists' office, light fixtures and virtually all of the building's windows remain intact, which is a rare find on Main Street. Susan spent the day measuring the space for possible plans to convert it into an apartment building. No final plans as of now, but we hope to get back to Texarkana soon to work on this building.
