DescriptionThe Alvarado Hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico. People walk along the sidewalk and across the train tracks in the foreground. The large, stucco hotel has a red tile roof and arched entryways from the platform to the hotel. Handwriting on the back reads, "Dear Helen, Picture of Alvarado Hotel and the Albuquerque depot. If you go into the Alvarado Hotel you'll open your eyes. They have things you never saw and maybe never see again. It looks like a string of buildings but it is only one long building. Hotel and depot combined. Do you get me? Love to all. Earlie Boy."
