DescriptionConstruction is nearly completed on the Franciscan Hotel on Central Avenue in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico. The multi-story pueblo-style hotel has windows, stucco, and architectural detailing completed. There is a cement machine and several wheelbarrows and ladders along the front of the hotel's ground floor. A sign over one small construction shed near the right of the frame reads, "Trost & Trost & C. F. Hill". The windows and doors along the ground floor are not installed. Piles of lumber are along the paved sidewalk near the far right of the frame. Near the left of the frame are piles of sand and construction materials.
