Cool Spring Place, Federal-style tavern in Fayetteville, United States
The rectangular structure exhibits a two-story design with five bays, four bays, and a double porch on the front section of the building.
Built in 1788 by Revolutionary War veteran Dolphin Davis, the building hosted delegates who ratified the U.S. Constitution for North Carolina in 1789.
The tavern holds connections to Flora McDonald, a significant figure for Scottish Highlanders, and represents early American architectural traditions in North Carolina.
