The Painted Lady arrives to Birmingham in 2024 with our 22-room and suite boutique hotel, occupying the old Eyer-Raden Building in the Automotive Historic District. Legend has it that the "Louise Curtis" who operated a "boarding house" in the upper floors of this building was Louise C. Wooster, sex worker and brothel owner turned local celebrity when her selfless work as a nurse in the city's cholera wards went public in the 1870's.
