Articles related to History and Architecture of Las Vegas, NM:
Viva Las Vegas (NM): 200 years Hispano Urban Design & Architecture - "...while Las Vegas’ Victorian architecture and grid iron street network reflect the notion of “Victorian perfection,” the houses, porches, fences, and front yards of West Las Vegas reflect a deeply rooted, culturally indigenous design vocabulary, which enables its community members to simultaneously express their individuality and their connectedness."

​The Other Las Vegas - an urban design prototype in New Mexico  1974 . . . by Anthony C. Antonaides, AlA
"Las Vegas, New Mexico has a great history as its asset. This alone should make it a top priority candidate for planning attention and revitalization.  Las Vegas is "a place;" "time" has been on its side; now the clock must be rewound."
