I think the library opened in 1951. I'll check and verify that.

The Community Center is in Los Duranes. The "Griegos Community Center" on Candelaria is little more than a childcare center. Our neighborhood associations are working with the County and City to acquire and develop a full service "Life Center" in the 4th Street Corridor. Perhaps you meant to say, "Los Griegos Library" instead of Los Griegos Community Center.

Fourth Street was never part of the Camino Real. There were two routes through Albuquerque. One, the River route, went from Barelas to Old Town, and then up what we now know as San Isidro Road and Guadalupe Trail to Alameda. The Foothills route is now Edith Blvd. Fourth Street was extended to Alameda in the beginning of the 20th Century, and was part of the alignment of Territorial Route 1, established by the 1904 Territorial Legislature, going from Raton Pass to Anthony on the Texas border.

AIS was established in 1881 in Duranes by contract with Presbyterian missionaries. The Indian Bureau took over the school in 1886. We have learned that the Cemetery was not established at AIS until around 1917 and had burials until 1939. Previously, AIS students who died were buried in a distinct section of Fairview Cemetery. The sentence "Diseases caused many deaths...." would be more accurate if it said "Contagious diseases caused a significant number of deaths, and a cemetery was established around 1917."
The City has posted my history of the Cemetery on its website about 4-H Park. I have updated that 2019 text to cover the recent events you accurately described and am available to answer any questions.

The Pueblo peoples arrived in the Rio Grande Valley in the 1300's. Although they utilized the river in various ways, the community ditch systems were made by Spanish colonists utilizing techniques developed over millennia from the Middle East through North Africa, and by technology using metals and domesticated animals. (e.g., oxen pulling iron-tipped plows.)

The arrival of the Santa Fe Railway in 1880 connected Albuquerque to the national economy. Much of the industrial development on the east side of the assessment area occurred through access to the railroad. Manufacturing zoning along the tracks hampers the improvement of several residential areas there.
