Area Guide
Stepping into parts of Santa Barbara-Martineztown feel like stepping into Albuquerque's past. This historic neighborhood dates back to the 19th century and features some of Albuquerque's most historic residences outside of Old Town. Quiet, winding streets, old-growth trees, and eclectic building styles hint at this storied history. However, the area's proximity to downtown Albuquerque and easy access to I-25 and I-40 have made it a desirable neighborhood for developers, so many high-end lofts and modern apartments are also available for rent.
Stop by Manuel's Food Market, a historic grocery store, for a fresh tamale, or venture slightly southeast into East Downtown, known locally as EDo, for a weekend brunch at the Grove Cafe, which residents voted best in Albuquerque. Afterwards, get your exercise at the 12-acre Santa Barbara Park, which offers playgrounds, softball fields, and more.
