Although the houses respond to Anglo-American attitudes by being free-standing, set back from and facing the street with ornamented porches, they are built of traditional Hispanic materials and most are composed of long files of self-contained rooms.

The private courtyard spaces defined by the houses, barns and fences also continue the Hispanic tradition of combining the house and farm buildings in one unit, sometimes called the casa- corral.

Among the outbuildings are some of the most outstanding and best-preserved examples of Hispanic barns in New Mexico.

Private corral compounds were formed by many of the houses, barns and fences.
