.El Platero, located in the center of the Mesilla Plaza, is housed in old building which at one time was brought by two enterprising merchants, Reynolds and Griggs, around 1860.  In the 1890's the Reynold's family had the Italianate Bracketed, stamped metal store front added to the building.  This was a front that was ordered out of a catalog.  Later in 1913, Father Jean Grange acquired the property and used it as his rectory.  Recently, J.Paul and Mary Taylor and their family have given the property to the state of New Mexico.
