The present day location of the George Brown was once a saloon. It is unknown if it was the George Brown. An interior staircase take you upstairs to where "sleeping rooms" once were.It was also noted that there were several prostitutes arrested for "running a house with no virtue." In the 1880's, one of these ladies was Lila Brown. It is unknown if Lila was related to George, however, since Yankton's reputation was rough and rowdy town, one can only assume so.

| During the late 1880's the George Brown advertised daily. He highly promoted his Old Milwaukee Beer and the beer tasting rooms in the back. The present day location of the George Brown was once a saloon.It is unknown if it was the George Brown. An interior staircase take you upstairs to where "sleeping rooms" once were. Now they are monthly and daily lodging. The floors of the Saloon are the original oak. They are blackened due to the oil they used to use to preserve the wood. Once inside, you feel like you have stepped back in time a 120 years ago. The walls are the original plaster with tin ceilings above. A mezzine overlooks the entire room. Although we have found many appropriate tables, chairs, cook stoves and other furnishings, we are still in search of that "perfect" back bar. All rental include one Saloon Girl and Once Bar keep in costumes. |
