A historic antebellum house that may be rented to host special events.
Trapnall Hall is a historic house at 423 East Capitol Avenue in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. Built in 1843 for lawyer Frederic Trapnall; one of Arkansas's finest examples of pre-Civil War Greek Revival architecture. It is a single-story brick building, with a hip roof and a projecting temple portico supported by square columns. The building is now owned by the state, which uses it as a venue for public and private events.
