With Coronado's expedition into the South-
west in 1540 there came one Hernando de
Alvarado, who was captain of the artillery with
the expedition. In memory of this man the
Alvarado was named.
The building was modelled after the old Spanish
missions, the wide spreading lawns and plaza,
and the graceful lines of the building remind
one of the days of Spanish chivalry.
