Fort Stanton, New Mexico

The basic form of this building is still unchanged, but the drastic changes in windows, (partially boarded up, shortened and replaced), the Palladian window in the attic gable end and the east addition detract from its original sturdy, simple grace. It's original interior arrangement, double-halled, symmetrical, and reflecting the exterior form, is completely gone.

Front Elevation c1900.
