DescriptionThis image depicts various housing developments in the Northeast heights of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The names of several major streets, such as, "Lomas Boulevard", have been drawn on the photograph using grease pencil. Numerous residential areas can be seen separated from one another by large empty dirt lots. These lots are often bisected by unpaved roads. Several paved roads can be seen running up to the foothills of the Sandia Mountains on the right side of the frame.
