Mills Street 1910s
The postcard, probably from ca. 1920, shows Mills Street towards Pioneer Plaza. To the right is the United States Post Office, in front of which cars are parking. Next to it is the Orndorff Hotel. The owner, Mrs. Alzina DeGroff, hired the renowned El Paso architectural firm Trost and Trost to design a new hotel in 1924. Today, it is the Cortez building. Behind the Hotel Orndorff is San Jacinto Plaza, and on the other side of the Plaza is the Mills building, built in 1911 by Trost and Trost and one of the largest all-concrete buildings then constructed. To the left is an hotel and other businesses. Across from San Jacinto Plaza is the Roberts-Banner building, another all-concrete structure from 1910.
