CALEXIC0 PLANS
TO PRESERVE
OLD LANDMARK

An old adobe building located in
4 picturesque spot in Calexico and
formerly used by Imperial Irriga
ton District as its headquarters, has
been leased to the City Of Calexieo
for a period of 80 years. The lease
was approved b. the board of direct.
ors of the district at the regular
session held Yesterday.
The district III approving the lease,
did so as a cooperative measure in
assisting Caiexico in plan to ere
ate a park about the site of the old
building. The plan is to preserve
the building as landmark and me.
mortal.
The building, which overlooks a
gorge was the first building in Cal
cXico and in fact was responsible
for Calexico s creation. 1t was built
in 1903 by the California Develop.
ment company, which at that time
wanted to erect a headquarters on
the border. With the old building
as headquarters other buildings soon
began to spring up about it and Cal
exico was the result, the name being
taken from California and Mexico.
When the irrigation district was
first formed it took over the build.
ing as headquarters and occupied it
for number Of years. Since then
it has remained in its possession and
been used only occasionally for vari-
Gus purposes.
In picking a site for II park, the
Calexico council has selected the old
building "a a center and with the ap'
proval of the lease by the board yes
terday, it is expected that plans will
