Santa Fe's Affordable Housing Boost, Concerts, and Real Estate Highlights
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Saturday, January 17th. Kick off your weekend with some exciting local buzz thats shaping our community and filling your calendar with fun.
Picture this: on a crisp morning just like today, developers and city leaders grabbed shovels for a groundbreaking on Turquoise Trail Apartments, a massive 312-unit affordable housing complex right here in Santa Fe. This 18-acre project promises two, three, and four-bedroom homes starting at just $1,033 a month for families earning up to 80 percent of our areas median income, about $65,700 for a household of three. And get this, a new bill pre-filed by state senators Michael Padilla and Cindy Nava could supercharge it by wiping out gross receipts taxes on projects like this, saving millions and luring more builders to town. Developers from Dominium say it alone would cover the cost of 26 extra units, easing our housing crunch where demand far outstrips supply. With the 30-day legislative session kicking off Tuesday, this could mean real relief for working families facing skyrocketing rents, turning long-term dreams into bricks and mortar by spring 2028.
Shifting gears to tonight's entertainment, music lovers, dont miss the Candlelight Concert pitting Coldplay against Imagine Dragons at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center at 8:30 PM. Tickets start at $44 for this intimate, candlelit showdown of hits thatll have you swaying in the glow. Or catch White Lion rocking Buffalo Thunder Resort Casino this evening, bringing that classic hair metal energy to our backyard. Families, head to EXPO New Mexico just south in Albuquerque for the Brick Convention today and tomorrow, where LEGO fans of all ages build epic creations and dive into hands-on funits the ultimate playdate for your inner kid.
In other news, Gene Hackmans sprawling 53-acre Santa Fe estate hit the market for $6.25 million. The 13,000-square-foot compound, now spotless after a full overhaul, boasts a lap pool, hot tub, putting green, and even an actors studio in a gated enclave. Its a slice of Hollywood history in the Land of Enchantment, though realtors admit its not for everyone.
Ongoing gems include distillery tours at Santa Fe Spirits, the 3D Succulent Workshop at TLC Stained Glass through March, and the vibrant Mezcaleria Amaras pop-up at Bishops Lodge. These spots highlight our creative spirit, blending art, craft, and culture into everyday adventures that make Santa Fe shine.
