Walking Guide to Albuquerque Neighborhoods
Nob Hill is one of Albuquerque’s favorite neighborhood shopping and restaurant districts. Discover the vibrant, ever-changing commercial corridor of small local businesses along Central Avenue and surrounding residential neighborhoods. | |
Duranes is bounded by Rio Grande Boulevard and the Rio Grande River, just north of I-40 and Old Town. | |
The Pat Hurley neighborhood, though just across the river from Old Town and a short bus ride from downtown, sometimes seems a world away, with its fields, gardens, irrigation ditches, and narrow winding roads. | |
West Park is a tiny residential area near downtown sandwiched between the Albuquerque County Club, historic Route 66 and the Rio Grande. | |
The Raynolds Addition, just west of downtown, has long been a favorite walking destination for both residents and nearby downtown workers. |
