Very interesting, got me exploring more about Mary Colter. Now I'll have to see if my local library has the book Architect of the Southwest.

She did amazing work. She got and gets relatively little attention because she worked in the Southwest and because (go figure) she was a woman. She designed for the Fred Harvey chain.
