Across the street from the Capitol in Nashville, is the Capitol Hotel. This hotel occupies some of the same ground where former president James K. Polk used to live. Polk and his wife were buried here for 2 years, before being reburied at the Capitol.
Oddly, it wasn't the first time Polk's burial site was moved.... and it may not be the last, as there has been talk of moving him to his home in Columbia TN.
