     Completed in 1927, this depot was designed by Southern Pacific Railroad architect Leonard B. McCoy and built by Ward Construction of El Paso. The depot was part of a major railroad expansion into South Texas. Passenger service ceased in 1952, but freight service continued until 1982. The depot is a fine example of mission revival and Spanish renaissance revival architecture. Features include double entries, tile detailing and a built-in bench. (1997)
