Sara Raynolds Hall is a historic building on the University of New Mexico campus in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Completed in 1921, it originally housed the university's home economics department.[4] The building was privately funded by local citizens, including the $16,000 construction cost[5] as well as several thousand dollars' worth of equipment. One of the largest donors was Joshua Raynolds, whose mother was the building's namesake.[6]
The building was designed by Arno K. Leupold with Edward B. Cristy as the supervising on-site architect.[7] Cristy designed the Pueblo style remodel of Hodgin Hall in 1908. As with nearly all subsequent buildings on campus, Sara Raynolds Hall also employed the Pueblo style. It is a one-story, brick bearing wall structure[8] with a beige stucco exterior. The building was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties and the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[3]
