The Lamy Building, also known as St. Michael's Dormitory, is a historic building in Santa Fe, New Mexico.It was built in 1878 as the main building of St. Michael's College, the predecessor of St. Michael's High School and the College of Santa Fe.
It is the mother church of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. The cathedral was built by Archbishop Jean Baptiste Lamy between 1869 and 1886 on the site of an older adobe church, La Parroquia (built in 1714–1717).

In 1896 the Fred Harvey Company built the luxurious El Ortiz Hotel here, and was designed by Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter. [12] Thus Lamy became an important railroad junction. The El Ortiz Hotel was then later demolished after its closing in 1947. [13]
