About La Castaneda Hotel, Las Vegas, New Mexico. Built in 1898 to be a jewel in Fred Harvey's famed chain of railroad hotels, La Castaneda is one of the early Harvey Houses to be built in the Mission Revival Style. Its main facade and courtyard face the railroad tracks. La Castaneda was a sister hotel to Albuquerque's Alvarado Hotel, which was demolished in 1970.

Noted guests included Theodore Roosevelt and William Jennings Bryan.

The Castaneda, La Fonda in Santa Fe, the Montezuma Hotel near Las Vegas, and the Hotel Clovis are the only Fred Harvey establishments still standing in New Mexico.

The background of this shot is comprised of the brick arches that line the veranda of the hotel with a photograph of the tower above the main entrance that greeted passengers embarking the trains overlaid on top at varying opacities.

Today, the building appears mostly vacant.

Thank you, Nessa... I think the "painted" look comes from the opacity changes on the tower. Didn't use any filters on this.

Best wishes,
Dave
