"The New Mexico Military Historic District (NMMI) consists of the NMMI main campus and two associated structures directly adjacent. The campus is located in north central Roswell bounded by North Main Street on the east, College Boulevard on the South (including two structures on the southern side of West College), Kentucky Avenue on the west and 19th Street on the north. NMMI has been at this location since 1899. The significance of the district arises largely from the quality and coherence of its architecture and campus planning. A single consistent "modified Gothic style" has been employed at the campus since 1909,, with the construction of the initial phase of Hagerman Barracks. There are presently 27 buildings on the main campus (including two structures on the southern side of West College Avenue). Five are significant architecturally, eight are contributing and 14 are non-contributing." (
