Edificio Cortez
Fotografía del reloj ubicado en el edificio Cortez. El edificio Cortez se encuentra en la esquina noreste del Norte Mesa y la Avenida Mills en San Jacinto Plaza en el centro de El Paso. Desde hace más de setenta y cinco años el edificio ha servido a la ciudad como un hotel, edificio de oficinas, y el hogar de los organismos gubernamentales. Fue construido originalmente como un hotel de la plaza, el último de tres hoteles en ocupar ese sitio. En 1899, la Sra. Alzina DeGroff, una pionera en el negocio hotelero en El Paso, adquirió el hotel Vendome y le cambió el nombre al Hotel Orndorff por su primer marido. Ella manejó el hotel durante más de veinticinco años, hasta 1924, cuando pidió prestado 825.000 dólares y contrató a la reconocida firma de arquitectos de El Paso Trost y Trost para diseñar un nuevo hotel. El Hotel Orndorff fue demolido y un nuevo Orndorff Hotel fue construido en el mismo sitio a un costo de más de 1,4 millones de dólares. Henry C. Trost, quien dominaba la escena arquitectónica del suroeste de Estados Unidos desde hace más de tres décadas, diseñó el edificio. http://epcc.libguides.com/content.php?pid=346448&sid=3176969
