They decided to make 206 State Street the home, the name was immediately settled. Loving the history of the Gulf Coast, and Mobile in particular, we were amazed to find that nestled on the north side of downtown was a historic district named after the most important and most forgotten founding father of Mobile. Everyone knows of the brothers D'Iberville and Bienville, but aside from knowing the Detonti Square Historic District exists, very few know of Henri De Tonti, a complete bad ass, hook wearing fancy lad with a family history known to most Americans through pop culture, with no idea that the Tonti family was a thing.

Great day with the owner, just sitting and chatting! This is a rough cut!
