ABOUT THE BOOK

"This book speaks to lovers of art, Santa Fe, historic architecture, guidebooks, and books as art." (back cover)


While living in the historic McKenzie Neighborhood, Victoria Rogers and Cal Haines collaboratively created art with a new perspective showing the late-1800 to mid-1900 buildings. Sharing the collection with David Rasch, now retired from the Santa Fe Historic Division, revealed that each image illustrates noteworthy architectural details. The resulting book, with the original images paired with fascinating information about the diverse structures, also provides background on the street names and the area.

"The historic McKenzie Neighborhood is just a five-minute walk from the downtown Plaza, bordered by the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum on Johnson Street. With its charming buildings, old-fashioned street lamps, bright hollyhocks and leggy branches of wild sunflowers along the sidewalk, and distant sounds of church bells or train horns, it's genuinely New Mexico where not hurrying is a way of life." (back cover)
