    I am potentially interested in this property (the old courthouse) 251 W Amador in Las Cruces NM 88005.
    I have an idea for it’s use if there is not something currently in the works.

  2. I want to know the detail story about the courthouse. what happened actually and who was dead then the killer?

  3. Is this site privately owned?
