The historic Trost Clubhouse, built in 1929 in Las Cruces, NM has been demolished.

The over 90-year-old building sat abandoned since the golf course and country club closed in 2011. It was designed by the architectural firm Trost & Trost.

Many sought to preserve the building as it was beloved by many Las Cruces residents, however, others considered it an eye-sore. Now only photographic evidence and its memory will be left of the controversial building.
