Nothing like a Texas Historical Commission Marker to ring in the new year:
Here you can see the building’s very distinctive dome:
According to the Handbook of Texas, both Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant are listed in the guest book of the Casino Club, which was founded in 1854. This building was constructed in 1927 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Casino Club buliding is located at 102 W. Crockett Street in downtown San Antonio, Texas.
Update: I edited this post in October 2010 to replace the picture of the Casino Club dome with a better one.
