The Dorsey Manor

Built by controversial Arkansas Senator Stephen W. Dorsey in the late 1870s and early 1880s, this part log and part stone mansion was once a center of social life in the southwest. Since its completion, it has been a unique architectural feature in New Mexico.

Dorsey Mansion was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on September 04, 1970.
