Uptown Connect
Uptown Connect is an innovative project led by ABQ RIDE in concert with a private developer that will bring together three of Albuquerque’s greatest needs: housing, sustainable transportation, and economic development. The mixed-use multi-level transit-oriented development will bring frequent and free transportation to energy-efficient apartments, and is expected to spur dozens new permanent jobs and millions of dollars in annual economic benefits.
This project is in the City’s densest employment, shopping, and entertainment district near Louisiana and I-40. The site is a quick walk away from three malls, two banks, many health care providers, dozens of restaurants, and two grocery stores – all of which contribute to the jobs and goods and services needed to maintain a high quality of life.
Featuring:
- More than 400 mixed-rate rental units
- An active environment for riders while waiting for transportation
- Convenient access to local bus service for the Uptown community
- Commercial space
- Access to thousands of jobs within 45-minutes of walking and transit travel time
- Public dog park
Uptown Connect is a place of connection: to live, work, or play – or all of the above!
