Why rent an apartment when you can live in a historic stone barn on a creek?
The historic Pojoaque property was built by Allen and his wife, Evelyn McNown, a woman deeply respected in the local community for her medical service. In gratitude for the care she provided, the Nambe people gifted Evelyn the land on which the family home was built. Allen and Evelyn lived on the property for more than forty years, shaping it into a family compound that functioned not only as a home, but as an evolving architectural laboratory rooted in place, service, and history.
