Albuquerque Route 66 Centennial logo.Who were the residents? What were their lives like? What did they do and how did they survive and use Fourth street (old Route 66)? What was historic Los Ranchos like during the pre-alignment period from 1926- 1937? The Mother Road played a significant role in shaping history and identity even after the realignment and before the Interstate was built.

There will be free parking for the speaker series in the lot across the street from the library, courtesy of the Albuquerque Historical Society.
