* Paul Street, Then and Now - The Now photo was taken just west of the Santa Fe railroad depot, facing west down Paul Street.
* (Legacy) Leland Hotel - Constructed as a one-story building in 1895, it was built of native stone. In 1910, a second story of brick was added at the same time the Yeatts Furniture Store building was constructed to the west. The second story of the Yeatts building was connected to the second story of the hotel and was used as a hotel annex. Some time between 1910 and 1920, a brick third story was added.
