Santa Fe Plans Permanent Plaza Street Closure | Albuquerque News

Santa Fe’s city council is pushing to make East San Francisco Street a permanent pedestrian zone from Memorial Day through Halloween, aiming to transform the downtown plaza into a safer, more family-friendly hub for events and locals. The plan seeks to cut down on seasonal closures and streamline city operations, while adding handicap access and emergency lane provisions. But not everyone’s on board — some councilors question the value of keeping a lane open, arguing it undermines the closure’s purpose. Past ideas like cruising nights are off the table. A final vote looms as the city hopes to revitalize its heart with a cleaner, more welcoming space. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
