ADMIRAL (HOTEL). Formerly the WINDSOR HOTEL, the Admiral was purchased in 1905 by T. J. Dunlop, a prominent restaurant owner and caterer from Davenport. It was believed the naming of the hotel reflected Dunlop's long years of service in the United States Navy. The hotel under its new name had its grand opening on October 2, 1905.
