Everything about The Hotel Congress totally explained
The
Hotel Congress was built in 1919 and is located in downtown

Rialto Theatre. In addition to being a hotel, the building also houses a restaurant, bar and venue.

On January 22, 1934, a fire started in the basement and spread up to the third floor. After a series of bank robberies, the
Dillinger Gang came to Tucson to lay low. The gang resided on the third floor under aliases. After the desk clerk contacted them through the switchboard the gang escaped by aerial ladders. On the request of the gang two firemen retrieved their luggage, identifying who they were.
When captured,
John Dillinger muttered, "Well, I'll be damned".

In 1985, a music venue was opened in the hotel, and has become a prime venue for touring bands playing in Tucson. In February, 2005, the stage was completely redesigned by local
latino artist
Daniel Martin Diaz.
