Polly Trump, President, called the meeting to order, introduced the chapter officers (Beverly Carver, Secretary/Treasurer and Jacqui Allen, Past President), and welcomed everyone. II. Vice President's Report--No report. Laura Schwartz was unable to attend. She will send The Medium deadlines via e-mail. III. The minutes of the 2000 business meeting were approved without any changes. IV. Beverly Carver, Secretary/Treasurer, presented the Treasurer's report showing a balance of $990.19, as of October 30, 2001. The report will be published in The Medium. There was some discussion about the $3.00 monthly service fee for the Chapter Bank account and alternatives we might want to explore. There was a general consensus that staying with our current bank was best for the time being. V. ARLIS/NA Welcome Party donation--The chapter usually donates around $250.00, but funds are limited this year, so it was decided that the chapter would give $150.00 toward the welcome party in St. Louis. VI. Sam Duncan, Webmaster, reported that it has been a busy year. A total of three electronic editions of The Medium will be published this year. The transfer to a frame-less site has been completed. He continues to tweak and make improvements. The site does not have a search engine yet, but he is working on it. We do not want the extra expense of having high-end searching capability; basic searching will meet our needs. The search function, when implemented, will first be applied to the membership database. Options for translating the web site into Spanish are still under investigation. The Medium has some small fonts that are difficult to read, and some of the words are cut off on the edge of the page when printed. Sam will look into ways to improve the readability and formatting to solve these problems. VII. Paula Hardin, Regional Representative, announced that the new management company is doing a good job, and has the organization's finances in order. Currently, they are working on the membership database for the ARLIS/NA web page.

  • Chapter One: 1920-1929
    Chapter One: 1920-1929 The first World War and the great “Spanish influenza” pandemic of 1918 had slowed Albuquerque’s population growth in the years just prior to 1920; and this sluggish growth had continued into the new decade. The 1920 census counted 15,157 residents living in the city. But substantial changes, especially in architecture and land development, were about to take place . and fast. The AT&SF locomotive shops were significantly expanded and improved between 1914 and 1924. The original shops, constructed in the 1880s, were comprised of wood frame structures or stone masonry buildings with heavy timber framing; however, the massive new Machine and Boiler shops utilized steel framing and glass curtain walls that proved to be a cheaper and easier way to build (pictured left). The oversized one-story buildings housed specialized work bays with skylights, and overhead traveling cranes (including one 250-ton crane) to facilitate the repair of the massive steam locomotives. To accommodate these new buildings, the railroad acquired additional land south of Pacific Ave. along Second St. And the 1920s was the start of the city’s “heyday” for commercial architecture with new hotels, movie theaters, and tall buildings. Albuquerque’s revitalization started with construction of the city’s first “skyscraper” and ended with six million dollars being spent in new construction between 1926 and 1930. In 1922, the nine-story First National Bank Building, designed by the firm of Trost and Trost, was built in the heart of downtown at the corner of Central and Third (pictured right). This three-part stacked vertical block building with Italianate styling dominated the city’s skyline and projected a modern, “big city” look.
