Pete Kitchen Ranch, Historic ranch in Nogales, United States.
The L-shaped stone structure features a flat roof with a 4-foot parapet that served as protection against Apache raids during frontier times.
Established around 1862 by Pete Kitchen, this ranch generated substantial income of $10,000 annually through crops and livestock production in the 1870s.
The adobe construction methods used in the ranch demonstrate the traditional building techniques of the American Southwest during the 19th century.
The ranch building continues its legacy as part of a restaurant establishment in Nogales, allowing visitors to experience this piece of history.
The property includes several smaller structures and dugout caves that provided shelter for workers during the ranch's operational period.
