On a flat tract of former farmland about 17 miles northeast of downtown San Antonio, Tex., the Army Corps of Engineers, in its biggest project since the Panama Canal, built in fewer than three years a permanent airfield that resembled a Spanish village. That project was originally named Randolph Field, until 1948, when it became Randolph Air Force Base. By the mid-1930s, Randolph Field’s fame had spread and it was known as “The West Point of the Air” for the Army Air Corps. Today, because of its architectural beauty, Joint Base San Antonio–Randolph is “The Showplace of the Air Force.”…named for Captain William Millican Randolph (1893-1928)… Randolph Field’s iconic Administration Building [is] known as the “Taj Mahal”)…

Hamilton Hotel, Laredo https://theclio.com/entry/116212
Now an elderly housing residence, the former Hamilton Hotel is historically significant for its striking Spanish Renaissance Revival architecture. Reaching a height of 150 feet, the 13-story building is one of the tallest structures in Laredo. It features arches on the first floor, colorful tile mosaics (some of which depict flora and fauna), two towers on the roof that have small octagonal towers, and, also on the roof, a stuccoed wall parapet. The old hotel is composed two parts: the shorter, northern portion was built in 1923 and the taller portion was built in 1928. It is located in the heart of downtown Laredo and across the street from Jarvis Park and the historic U.S. Post Office, Court House and Custom House…
When the hotel was built, Laredo was thriving economically (as was the rest of the country during the 1920s) as it had grown to become an important trading center between the U.S. and Mexico. It was in this context that the first part of the hotel was built in 1923. However, demand for hotel rooms kept rising, which prompted the construction of the 13-story building in 1928. This was designed by notable father/son architects Robert and Atlee Ayers, who were the state’s most prominent architects in the 1900s. Together, they designed several notable buildings throughout the state, some of which are also on the National Register of Historic Places. It is unclear how long Hamilton Hotel operated but it was converted into an elderly housing residence in 2000.
