À propos de cet audio
We wake up today to breaking news on our streets. ABQ RAW reports an overnight shooting near Central and Jefferson that marks roughly the one hundred seventh homicide in our city this year. Police are still investigating, and we stay mindful of the weight that number carries for our neighborhoods along the Central corridor.
ABQ RAW also tells us about a serious crash involving a bicyclist at Claremont and San Mateo, with APD’s Motor Unit called out. As we move through town today, we take extra care at busy intersections like San Mateo and Lomas, and around bike lanes from Nob Hill to the North Valley.
From City Hall, we get a significant housing update. The city has finalized a development agreement to transform the long-vacant Park Central tower at San Mateo and Central into Serenade at Park Central, a new one hundred ten unit mixed income community, with about forty units set aside as affordable housing. City leaders say this is a key step in the Housing Now strategy, turning empty commercial space into homes and bringing new life to that stretch east of I-25.
Transit changes are also on the way. KUNM reports that ABQ Ride will roll out new bus route adjustments on December thirteenth, aimed at more frequent service and better weekend coverage. Some routes along Central, San Mateo, and Eubank will change, so we check our usual bus before Monday commutes and weekend trips downtown.
On the rental front, the Greater Albuquerque Association of Realtors notes a proposed Rental Practices Ordinance up for a City Council hearing on December fifteenth. The measure could reshape how landlords handle applications, fees, and evictions, affecting thousands of renters from West Side apartments off Coors to older complexes near UNM.
Weatherwise, we stay cool and clear today, with crisp morning air along the Bosque trails and mild afternoon sun over the Sandias. We can plan outdoor markets in Old Town and kids’ sports at Balloon Fiesta Park, with only a slight breeze expected and no major storms on the immediate horizon.
In jobs and real estate, local brokers say median home prices in the metro now hover in the mid three hundreds, with inventories still tight but improving. New hiring continues in health care near UNM Hospital and in logistics hubs around Jefferson and I-25, where warehouses are adding dozens of seasonal and permanent roles.
Looking at schools, several APS high school teams wrap up winter tournaments this weekend, with basketball and wrestling action on campuses from Atrisco Heritage to Eldorado. Families should check school sites for exact game times.
Culturally, we have holiday concerts and art markets lighting up downtown. The area around Civic Plaza and the KiMo Theatre hosts music, while small galleries along Central in Nob Hill and EDo showcase local makers for last minute gifts.
For a feel good moment, Albuquerque Fire Rescue recently pulled three residents to safety from a second story balcony during a house fire on Galeras Street Northwest. Quick work from crews prevented tragedy and reminds us of the dedication of our first responders.
