Artesia, NM

The 1912-built passenger depot at Artesia shared a number of stylistic similarites with depots at Osage City, KS and Coleman, TX. The open waiting room was enclosed and several doors were filled in at some point, but the depot escaped the "southwesternization" that was visited upon Roswell and Carlsbad around 1930. In 1999, the Artesia Chamber of Commerce began a $1.6 million revonation of the structure, and today it serves as a visitors center and the Pecos Valley Dairy Museum.
