Paden's Drug Store, at 1200-1208 E Ave. in Carrizozo, New Mexico, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. It was built in 1907.[1]

The listing includes two buildings. The most prominent is the two-part commercial building built in 1909 and modified to add a second story, by Carrizozo builder D.B. Tennis, in 1917.[2]

In 1937, Melvin G. Paden sold the pharmacy to “Red” Eaker who retained the "Paden" name and ran the store until 1954.[3] In 1977, Carrizozo resident Roy Dow, who owned a gift shop, moved his shop in the Paden Drug Store.[3]

Paden's Drug Store now operates as a Gift Gallery and Ice Cream Parlour.[3]
