For this reason, Albuquerque is increasingly a mecca for beer enthusiasts and afficianados. Glance over a selection of newcomers and our local institutions to find the brewpub that matches your mood and tastes. DIALOGUE BREWING 1501 First Street NW (505) 585-1501 dialoguebrewing.com If you like your stouts with a serving of art on the side, Dialogue Brewing will feel like a homecoming for you. Situated in an industrial area just north of Downtown proper, Dialogue has plenty of space to explore their artistic side. Six 35-foot sculptures tower above drinkers relaxing in the expansive outdoor seating area, and inside, the walls play host to a rotating selection of work by various local artists. Several of Dialogue’s owners and founders have a background in the art world, which explains the singular aura they have created in the brewery, which offers European style drinks like one of their signatures, the Berliner Weisse. SIDETRACK BREWING 413 Second Street SW (505) 832-7183 sidetrackbrewing.net Keeping things cozy and cool is a method that has worked well for the purveyors of beer at Sidetrack Brewing in Albuquerque’s Downtown. The friendly neighborhood pub atmosphere that the tiny space has created on a hip block of Second Street, next door to Zendo coffeehouse, rubs off on the clientele, making this spot the best to relax and unwind. A cool soundtrack and a backdoor patio add to the chill character of the place and only enhance the Dialog Brewing taste of the six beers they regularly keep on tap, like their single barrel stout, the Co-Mo IPA (with grapefruit, pineapple and mango) and the brewery’s collaboration with Zendo, the Buzz Bomb, a pale ale infused with cold brew Ethiopian coffee. LA CUMBRE BREWING COMPANY 3313 Girard Blvd. NE (505) 872-0225 lacumbrebrewing.com Since 2010 beer lovers have been flocking to La Cumbre, a brewery that boasts more awards for their craft beer than any other in the state. Their taproom—tucked into a Midtown industrial area—is industrial, but cozy. Spend any ERIC WILLIAMS PHOTOGRAPHY time there and you’ll realize that you’re mostly surrounded by regulars who have been championing the spot since it swung open its doors. La Cumbre offers year-round favorites like their wildly popular Elevated IPA and the super hoppy Project Dank. They also offer rotating taps of special releases that frequently sell out. You can make an evening of it at La Cumbre, where food trucks are on-site seven days a week, it’s dog-friendly, and foosball and live music frequently fills the taproom, to boot. BOXING BEAR BREWING COMPANY 10200 Corrales Rd. (505) 897-2327 boxingbearbrewing.com Situated near the banks of the Rio Grande in Albuquerque’s scenic Northwest, Boxing Bear Brewing is always worth the trip. It took the third spot in a national poll of the best breweries in 2017 ranked by USA Today. Stop in and you’ll see why. The brewery itself is expansive, with ample outdoor seating to enjoy the pleasant New Mexican sun, and the microbrews on tap are some of the finest quality you’ll find throughout the city. House beers include the Chocolate Milk Stout, Uppercut IPA and the Ambear Ale. Their menu also offers top-notch seasonal beers, local wine and a cider. The taproom also offers a full menu with appetizers and bigger plates for weary, buzzed travelers. MARBLE BREWERY 111 Marble Ave. NW (505) 243-2739 marblebrewery.com The proof of Marble’s popularity amongst longtime residents and visitors alike is evidenced in their three locations around the city—their main arm in Downtown, as well as Westside and Northeast Heights locations. This mainstay of the local beer scene has been bustling since 2008. The second largest brewery in New Mexico, Marble offers beers like their Great American Beer Festival winners, which include the Double White, the Imperial Red and their Pilsner. Their Downtown taproom offers live music and food trucks most nights, and visitors will find a vibrant, energetic Dialogue Brewery weekend spot to meet-up, dance, and of course, enjoy a few beers. a SPRING 2018 THIS IS ALBUQUERQUE [5] BREWPUBS BOW & ARROW BREWING CO. 608 McKnight Ave. NW (505) 247-9800 bowandarrowbrewing.com In an expensive old warehouse on the intersection of Sixth and McKnight is Bow & Arrow, a hip beer bar that boasts one of the best drinking atmospheres in the whole town. Founded by two Native women in 2016, Bow & Arrow doesn’t just have the atmospherics down, they have their beer menu on lock, too. The craft beers on tap here run the gambit—they have your standard IPAs and lagers, but they also boast sours, saisons and aged stouts. Hop over to Bow & Arrow in the Wells Park neighborhood to enjoy top-notch brews in a bright, airy spot. ERIC WILLIAMS PHOTOGRAPHY Casinos BY AUGUST MARCH asinos and New Mexico are a thing. Back in the before time, when gambling wasn’t Cexactly legal in the state, folks had to stand in line at circus tent like affairs by the side of the highway to get their fill of the gaming life. Pulling pop tops and checking your bingo cards for compliance were tolerable activities for people interested in turning their pocket change into pots of gold—until legalized gambling came to New Mexico in the early aughts.

"En Unidad, Hay Poder" COMMUNITY ACTIVISM AND ETHNICITY IN SOUTH MARTINEZTOWN, 1930-1974 Vanessa Macias estled between downtown Albuquerque and Interstate 25 lies the small NChicano community of South Martineztown. The neighborhood's orderly streets go past a little grocery store, elementary school, park, and rows of town homes with adobe fac;ades. Each morning elderly residents greet each other on their walks, while parents hustle children through break­ fast and off to the school bus. The residents come together to spread the hushed glow of luminarias throughout the streets on Christmas Eve and to pick up runaway weeds and forgotten clumps oftrash every April. The neigh­ borhood association addresses ordinary concerns like speeding cars along the main thoroughfare. These day-to-day activities and shared experiences could describe many neighborhoods in Albuquerque and the greater South­ west. This particular routine in South Martineztown conceals its residents' triumphant struggle to preserve their homes and claim public space as proud Chicano/as in a changing urban setting.

  • Before the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
    BEFORE THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT Historic Neighborhood Alliance, Martineztown Work Group, and Loretta Naranjo Lopez Complainants, v. City of Albuquerque Respondent. Morgan Wyenn Natural Resources Defense Council 1314 Second St. Santa Monica, California 90401 (310) 434-2300 [email protected] I. Introduction The neighborhood of Martineztown in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has suffered disproportionate detrimental impacts from the long-standing history and pattern of discrimination by the City of Albuquerque’s (“City”) zoning, and the City’s failure to correct the problem even in the most recently-adopted new code. The City’s failures disproportionately impact this predominately minority community compared to similarly situated nearby communities that are more white and affluent. This disparate impact violates the Fair Housing Act, Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, 25 U.S.C. § 1321(a) et seq. and the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) implementing regulations, and we respectfully request that the Secretary, under 42 U.S.C. § 3610, immediately refer the matter to the Attorney General for action under 42 U.S.C. § 3614 because it involves the legality of the City’s local zoning laws. From the City’s zoning of Martineztown1 in the 1950s to the most recent zoning plan, embodied in the Albuquerque & Bernalillo County Comprehensive Plan (“Comprehensive Plan”), updated April 12, 2017, and associated Integrated Development Ordinance (“IDO”), effective May 17, 2018,2 the City has for over four decades repeatedly implemented deleterious zoning directly causing the erosion of the community’s social fabric and historic character.

  • A History the Core of Central Albuquerque Is the “Original Town
    Albuquerque: A History The core of Central Albuquerque is the “original town site” founded upon the arrival of the railroad in 1880, and historically referred to as “New Town” Albuquerque (or “New Albuquerque”). As would be expected, as the city grew during the course of the twentieth century, the boundaries of Central Albuquerque expanded as the new city annexed newly formed subdivisions and three previously unincorporated communities into its boundaries: the original Villa de Albuquerque founded by Spanish colonists in 1706 (commonly known as “Old Town” and located two miles west of the railroad town); the seventeenth century Hispanic village of Barelas (situated immediately south of the original town site); and the once semiautonomous, neighborhoods of Martineztown and Santa Barbara (located to the northeast of the historic downtown’s commercial center). In short, Central Albuquerque represents what most of the city’s residents considered “downtown” for almost eighty years. It was the place where at one time or another most people lived, worKed, shopped, and visited doctors’ offices as well as government offices. Today, its built environment reflects the historical patterns of these activities. A note about the time period - 1880 to 1970 - covered here: this ninety-year period was established for some obvious – and not so obvious – reasons. The obvious: the year 1880 marks the arrival of the railroad which was a seminal moment in the City of Albuquerque history and is, in fact, its raison d’ etre. The end year of 1970 is less obvious; but represents a point in the city’s timeline where significant changes were occurring in the character of Central Albuquerque.
