Won't Real Estate Developments Ever Cease?

Not very happy about this:



Fifty years from now, an enormous chunk of the old Atrisco Land Grant could be home to 90,000 people living in a self-sufficient community with its own residential villages, business parks and open space.

At least that’s the vision of Western Albuquerque Land Holdings LLC, the Delaware company that now owns most of the property.

The company is asking Bernalillo County to approve a master plan for 13,700 acres on the far West Side, near the city landfill and county jail and south of Interstate 40 and west of 118th Street.

Called Santolina, it’s the biggest master plan the county has ever considered, and it’s reignited a debate familiar to Albuquerque – how best to handle growth and development on the outskirts of the community.
