Historic hotel with a published child-spirit tradition.

A hotel in Americus, Georgia, opened in 1892, Windsor Hotel is filed here for what the record attaches to it. Historic hotel with a published child-spirit tradition. The name the accounts keep returning to is Floyd Lowery. The dossier holds 1 reported claim, 1 legend and 1 documented fact, with the verified spine filed separately from the lore. It still takes guests.

The Windsor Hotel opened June 16, 1892 — Gottfried Norrman's Victorian palace in Americus, the small city's improbably grand hotel, restored and reopened in 1991 nearly a century after its debut. The file's documented spine is the hotel's ambition: a five-story castle in a cotton town, built when Americus was rich, revived when the town remembered it.

FLOYD LOWERY AND THE CHILD
The lore recounts a child apparition and doorman Floyd Lowery — the file's ghosts being the hotel's own: a child in the halls and the longtime doorman reportedly still at his post, the staff ghost being the Windsor's most reported resident.
Floyd Lowery is the file's signature — a doorman whose service outlasted his life reportedly still working the door, the hotel keeping its most faithful employee.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
The Windsor is the archive's doorman file — an 1892 Victorian palace keeping a child apparition and its doorman Floyd Lowery still on duty. The documented hotel is the record; the staff's continued service is the lore.
A hotel that kept its doorman keeps him still — the file's suggestion being that Floyd Lowery's shift never ended at the Windsor's door.
