Albuquerque Audio Tour: Downtown Legends, Landmarks, and Luminaries
Beneath the neon buzz of Route 66, Downtown hides secrets older than the pavement itself. Explore at your own pace with a self-guided audio tour that reveals the tales lurking behind art deco facades and iconic marquees. Uncover the rivalries, scandals, and legends that most visitors rush past in their search for souvenirs. Who narrowly escaped a political standoff in the shadowy corridors of the Sunshine Building? What unexplained events rattled actors on the KiMo Theater's haunted stage? How did the Simms Building become a battlefield for modernist dreams and old-guard power? Venture through bustling streets and quiet alleys as stories rise from forgotten corners and history pulses with each step. Every landmark offers a new dimension—drama, suspense, and revelations mapping the city in a way no guidebook could. Let curiosity pull you off the beaten path. Listen closely. The true Downtown is ready to be discovered.
