The Cornstalk Hotel is set behind the iconic 'cornstalk" cast iron fence. There is a lovely story of an early owner who brought his young bride to live here far from her native Iowa. To soften some of her loneliness for the waving fields of corn back home, he caused this replica to be made in graceful iron so that from her front gallery she could forever see something of her native land. One of the highlights of any visit to "America's Most Interesting City" is viewing the cornstalk fence and staying at the Cornstalk Hotel.

I wish the corn detail in wrought iron was more pronounced but still great work.
