Contributed by Michael MillerWords on a sign on the wall of the building:
“The Ciderpress was an antique store for many years but is now a private residence. The brick section was built by the Cartwright family and was the first garage built in Santa Fe. The adobe section was built in the early 1940s by Juanito Lujan, a Taos Indian, for his own use. He was the gardener and good friend of Emmy Caldwell, whose family still owns it. The property extends to De Vargas St. The location of the western portion of the Roque Tuedesqui house, built in 1840, 99 years old when bought by Mr. Cadlwell!”
