The Architecture of Columbus

Here are a few pictures of some of the architecture in Columbus, New Mexico. The picture of the water tower is taken from a lookout point at Pancho Villa State Park and Columbus is in the background.




Above right is "downtown" Columbus. The small blue building on the right is the police station, with the Patio Cafe to the left, the Tumbleweed Theatre and the Chamber of Commerce. Traffic in downtown is about always the same as seen in this picture.


Above is City Hall and the courthouse. Inside the courtyard is where the purified water station is located.


This set of buildings are some of the remaining architecture from the early days of Columbus. We often eat in the Las Casitas restaurant here which is middle right.


This is Martha's Place, the B&B where we are staying. Each room has access to the balcony. The front balcony overlooks the desert and Palomas, Mexico.
