Richardson Store, Commercial building in Montoya, New Mexico
The Richardson Store building features red sandstone construction with architectural elements characteristic of early 20th century commercial structures in New Mexico.
G.W. Richardson established this store in 1908 in a wooden structure before relocating it to the current red sandstone building in 1918.
The Richardson Store represents the commercial development along Route 66, serving as a center for travelers and local residents during the mid-20th century.
The building, accessible from Interstate 40 through the Montoya exit, remains vacant since its closure and experienced roof damage in 2014.
The Richardson Store operated through three major transportation eras: pre-Route 66, the Mother Road period, and the early Interstate system.
