Vacant property owners in downtownAlbuquerque are now facing penalties fromcity government.Commercial real estate professionals in thearea point to factors that prevent propertiesfrom remaining vacant: safety and security. On Tuesday the city’s “Downtown VacantPremises Ordinance” or O-61 took effectwhich imposes additional costs to property owners in a 21-block quadrant within theheart of downtown.From Copper Avenue to Silver Avenue andbetween 8 Street and 1 Street, owners ofproperties with 30 percent or more ofunused footage on the ground floor arebeing forced to submit to registration withthe threat of penalty. th stAny property with that amount of space CITY PENALIZES FOR VACANCY INRESPONSE TO BLIGHT, REALTORSADDRESS THE CAUSESBy Dane Vaughn, The Built Environment07/02/2025BUILTENVIRONMENT3The 21-block quadrant where O-61 will take effect, penalizing property owners for unused square footage.

unused for nine months within the city’sfiscal year would be defined as vacant. Failure to register the property as vacantwith the Albuquerque Code EnforcementOffice would result in $500 per day in fines.Either way property owners are beingpushed to pay the city as registration feesstart at $1,000 per 1,000 square feet,maxing out at $5,000 for any propertygreater than 15,001 square feet.Once registered the property owner isforced to arrange an inspection by codeenforcement. If the property owner doesnot consent to or arrange the inspection, theordinance states that code enforcement canissue a search warrant for the property. Mayor Tim Keller signed the ordinance inJanuary after the city council passed withbut one dissenting vote from CouncilorLouie Sanchez. "The Vacant Premises Ordinance will helpactivate the empty buildings downtown andallow new businesses to thrive," said Kellerin a recent press release.Criticism online of Keller and other citycouncilors regarding this approach to thestate of downtown has been consistent fromone property owner.Douglas Peterson, President of PetersonProperties LLC, has social media pagesacross platforms depicting homeless people,trespassers and vandals at their properties.More than a handful of properties are in thesame block radius being impacted by theordinance. One such recently renovated propertylocated in the area hasn’t been occupiedsince 2016 and police are to blame, saidPeterson in a LinkedIn post accompanied byphotos taken of the incidents. “Now, the City wants to slap an additionaltax on downtown properties for a “BusinessImprovement District” (the same thing thatfailed before) so we can pay even more forunresponsive law enforcement,” saidPeterson. The Built Environment reached out toPeterson for comment but there has beenno response as of e-publication.A business owner in a different area of town,Old Town, also noted the cost burdenassociated with vandalism while newdevelopments receive tax write offs, such asa quarter billion-dollar industrial revenuebond being allocated to a project in hisneighboring district. “I’ve been broken into at my restaurantmany many times. I got to come out and getmy money and pay for my windows becausewe can’t afford security guards,” said abusiness owner submitting public commenton June 16 , 2025. thThe Built Environment reached several co- BUILTENVIRONMENT4Copyright: The Buiilt Environment

mmercial real estate professionals in thecity about vacancy downtown. Here aretheir written responses:BUILTENVIRONMENT5SHELLY BRANSCOM,SENIOR DIRECTOR AT NAI SUNVISTAWhat are the different factors that keepproperties vacant for longer than ninemonths at a time? There are several different factors that keepproperties vacant for longer than ninemonths. Factors such as oversupply, the sizeof the space (too large or too small), lack ofon site parking, parking too expensivecompared to other submarkets inAlbuquerque, safety and security as well asthe existing condition of the space. If aTenant cannot imagine themselves in thespace, they typically will not move forward.Landlords who invest in propertyimprovements such as new flooring andpaint, updated break rooms and refreshedcabinetry, significantly enhance theappearance of their vacancies. Theseupgrades can substantially reduce the timea space remains on the market by improvingits overall presentation and functionality. Do these factors differ in different areas ofthe city in your experience? For the most part, these factors do not differin other parts of the city. Safety, securityand move in ready have always been leadingfactors when Tenants select a location. What will entice or incentivize morebuyers/tenants to the downtown area ofAlbuquerque, in your view? In my opinion, Buyers and Tenants need tofeel safe in their environment no matterwhere the real estate is located. They alsowant to be close to amenities such asinterstate access, restaurants, shopping,banking, gym/exercise and suppliers. Finally,they want their clientele to easily find them. SHÓNA MARTINEZ, SENIOR ASSOCIATE AT CBRE What are the different factors that keepproperties vacant for longer than ninemonths at a time? Specifically in the Downtown Submarket,these factors include property crime andpersonal safety – a huge priority forcompanies, these factors impede prioritiessuch as recruiting & retaining talent. Inaddition, most properties Downtown areClass B & Class C, which are less desirable ingeneral in the current climate. Lack ofamenities is also another factor.Do these factors differ in different areas ofthe city in your experience? Yes, we see a huge demand for space in theNorth I-25 corridor and Uptown. Typically,these areas have more daytime populationmeaning that they feel safer, more walkableamenities and a larger supply of Class A &B+ properties.What will entice or incentivize morebuyers to the downtown area ofAlbuquerque, in your view?I am a big believer in “Build it and they willcome”.

BUILTENVIRONMENT6businesses to open services in theDowntown area would in turn attract moretenants to office buildings, which wouldthen generate a synergy, more daytimepopulation and a general sense of safety andcommunity. We are seeing some pockets ofthis synergy, such as at 7 & Central, whichis incredibly hopeful, and if we can continuethat trajectory, the Downtown market willeventually become a thriving, buzzy,walkable and desirable place. Public/privatepartnerships, as is done in the likes of ElPaso and Tucson, would be hugelybeneficial. Ultimately, having more mentalhealth services to cope with the demandwould be a huge benefit to everyone as itwould help in dealing with the root issues, aswell as helping with public safety. Anothersmall, but vital part of this would be to makeparking more accessible for people travelingto Downtown. Although this may not seemlike a groundbreaking idea, removing cityparking charges is an item that could make ahuge impact.thbuilding registry with a similar decree on theway.According to Construction Reporter, thisweek members of the city council in Denverwill review a proposal that would penalizevacant property owners as much as $5000 aday.ENFORCEMENT ANDMIRRORINGAs the city moves forward with enforcingthe ordinance to “encourage propertyowners to make productive use of theirproperties”, one major city is mimicking thepattern of policy.“Albuquerque’s Downtown Core has avacancy rate of approximately 12.8% forretail properties, 23% for office space, andover 30% of the land is simply being used forsurface parking,” states a recent release.According to the city, 137 properties weresurveyed and 20 of them were unoccupiedin May of 2025.In Denver there were reportedly 300properties on a neglected and derelictCopyright: Canva Pro

BUILTENVIRONMENTMore than two dozen cooling systems areexpected to be installed in Las Cruces thissummer as part of an ongoing effort toreduce the urban heat island effect.As defined by the Environmental ProtectionAgency, heat islands occur when one part ofa given metropolitan area is measurablyhotter than anything surrounding it due tothe presence of concrete and cement.Those building materials tend to absorb andhold onto solar radiation, a pattern that isoften exacerbated in some urban sectionsthat are also lacking trees.LAS CRUCESEMBRACINGINNOVATIVE COOLINGSYSTEM INITIATIVEBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter06/30/2025Copyright: Canva proIn a study earlier, taken on by the City of LasCruces, it was determined that thetemperatures in certain low-incomeneighborhoods were up to 14 degreeshigher than other neighborhoods.In response, the city committed itself to aprogram that would see the installation ofheat pumps in a handful of homes, which arethought to be more efficient than swampcoolers and air conditioners.Poorly named, heat pumps use electricity tomove heat from an interior space to theoutdoors.

BUILTENVIRONMENTCONSTRUCTION NEWSNATIONALMembers of the U.S. Senate have narrowlygiven their approval to President Trump’sOne Big, Beautiful Bill Act, which cuts taxesacross the board while also getting rid ofclimate-friendly energy tax credits.Vice-President J.D. Vance provided the tie-breaking vote for the nearly 1,000-page billafter three Republicans in the GOP-majorityupper chamber came out against it.WITH CLOSE SENATEAPPROVAL, BIGBEAUTIFUL BILL IS NOWON ITS WAY TO THEHOUSEBy Garry Boulard, The Built Environment 07/02/2025Copyright: Canva proThe centerpiece of the legislation is anextension of individual tax rate reductionsoriginally approved in the Tax Cuts and JobsAct of 2017. The bill keeps in place most ofthe tax reductions from that earlierlegislation but adds deductions for overtimepay and up to $25,000 of tipped wages.The tip and overtime pay deductions wouldbe kept in place until 2028.The measure additionally permanentlylowers the corporate tax rate from the 35%imposed before the 2017 act to 21%. Taxeswill also be reduced on such businessinvestments as the purchase of newmachinery and equipment while keeping inplace for the next 8 years all OpportunityZone incentives for businesses that invest inwhat are otherwise regarded asdisadvantaged areas.The White House has also issued astatement noting that some 88% of seniorsreceiving Social Security will not have to paya tax on those benefits because of thelegislation. “A senior who files as a singletaxpayer and receives the current averageretirement benefit (approximately $24,000)will see deductions that exceed their taxableincome.”Continues >41

An analysis by the non-profit Committee fora Responsible Federal Budget has estimatedthat if the Big Beautiful Bill wins approval inits current form in the House, it would mostlikely add $3.5 to $4.2 trillion in debt to thefederal government. The analysis notes thatdepending upon possible adjustments to thelegislation, the “actual deficit impact couldbe far higher than under the bill as currentlywritten.”Climate-friendly energy tax credits, inparticular for wind and solar projects, aregreatly reduced in the legislation, whichstates that unless the project in question isproducing electricity by 2028, it would notbe eligible for the credit.One of the most controversial elements ofthe bill calls for requiring states to take on ashare of the cost of Supplemental NutritionAssistance Program benefits, a provisionthat some lawmakers have said will lead tothe states cutting benefits.Cuts of up to $1 trillion to the Medicaidprogram also made the final Senate bill, withthe Congressional Budget Office forecastingthat if the House approves those cuts, up to12 million Americans could be at risk oflosing their health insurance.The bill is now on its way to the House,where the Republicans, with 219 membersto the Democrats’ 212, can ill afford anydefections.

Founded in 1981, thecompany has long focused on investment management, seeing revenue more than $6.7trillion in 2023.SoftBank has had investment relationships in such areas as biotechnology, logistics, andsoftware. Earlier this year it was announced that it was launching an estimated $500billion artificial intelligence infrastructure system in a project with the U.S. government.That investment, called the Stargate Project, is expected to be spread out over a four-year period.In comments just made during SoftBank’s annual shareholders’ meeting, chief executiveofficer Masayoshi Son remarked: “We want to be the organizer of the industry in theartificial super intelligence era.”The SoftBank plan for Arizona is called Project Crystal Land and may, according toreports, be dependent upon incentives from both the federal government and Arizona.NEW MASSIVE ARTIFICIALINTELLIGENCE FACILITYPROPOSED IN ARIZONABy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter06/27/2025BUILTENVIRONMENT51

The ongoing increases in mortgages,combined with rising apartment rents, ismaking it increasingly difficult for manyAmericans to secure stable housing.according to a new report.Just issued by Harvard University’s JointCenter for Housing Studies, the reportcontends that rising insurance and propertytaxes are two of the less prominentlyreported factors creating “cost-burdenedhomeowners,” a segment thought tonumber around 20.3 million peoplenationally. Home prices have increased by aremarkable 60% in the last six years, hittinga new average high last year of $412,500.HARVARD STUDYNOTES STUBBORN HIGHHOME AND RENTPRICES, ALTHOUGHINVENTORIES IN BOTHCATEGORIES ARE ONTHE UPSIDEBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter06/27/2025Copyright: Canva proAt the same time, mortgage payments on amedian-priced home have also jumped, andare today some 40% greater than wherethings stood in 1990. A buyer today needsan income of at least $126,700 to affordsuch mortgages and the “associated taxesand insurance costs.”The rent picture appears equally gloomy.For years seen as the logical alternative tobuying a house, apartment renting hasbecome significantly more expensive withnearly 27 million renters now regarded as“cost burdened,” which means spendingmore than 30% of their income on housingand utilities.The report, called State of the Nation’sHousing, maintains that “access tohomeownership is further restricted by thelarge sums needed for a down payment,which have grown in step with rising homeprices.”A buyer, in fact, as of late 2024 would needupwards of $26,800 in cash to cover boththe closing costs and 3.5% down paymenton a median-priced home.While the home price trends are formidable,the inventory of available homes have seena undeniable increase this year, with thepool of homes up in 98 out of 100 metroareas surveyed.And some of those homes are now reflectingthe needs of current consumers, withbuilders completing smaller homes with lessamenities to offer them at lower prices. “Themedian size of a new single-family homedeclined for the third consecutive years in2024,” says the report, dropping to 2,150square feet.

“Many builders have also cut prices oroffered mortgage rate buydowns tofacilitate sales,” the report adds.Ultimately, overall high home prices andapartment rents may level out some in themonths to come, rather than displaying thedramatic spikes of the last three years, thereport asserts.That trend will be helped by a widening ofthe pool. “The lack of available homes forsale has been a major driver of rising homeprices in recent years.” However, betweennow and late 2029, with more houses beingcompleted, “we can expect to see somerelief from the supply shortage.”The role played by the Federal Reserve, ofcourse, will remain influential. A rise ininterest rates seen particularly in 2022 and2023, has significantly lessened. Says theNorada report: “Interest rates areanticipated to gradually recede, potentiallyculminating in a resurgence of demand inthe housing market.”Based in Laguna Niguel, California, NoradaReal Estate Investments specializes inmarket analysis as well as building,renovating, and selling properties forimmediate rental or occupancy uponpurchase.Members of the Millennial Generation andGeneration Z are slated to become thedominant forces in the market in theimmediate years to come, while at the sametime the “back to the city” trend appears tohave been played out.In fact, the priorities of the two generationssound like nothing less than what theparents of Baby Boomers were looking forin the 1950s and early 60s: “Many buyersare now looking in suburban and rural areasrather than traditional urban centers,reflecting a desire for more space andcommunity amenities.”BUILTENVIRONMENT79The big housing market boom of thepandemic years, and the bust of the GreatRecession years, is not likely to be repeatedanytime soon, predicts a new nationalreport.But the market, according to the companyNorada Real Estate Investments, will seesome stabilization due a leveling of prices:“Home prices are still expected to rise,albeit at a more moderate pace.”NEW NATIONAL REALESTATE REPORT SEESSTABLE MARKET FORREST OF DECADE, WITHA RETURN TO 1950SVALUESBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter06/26/2025Copyright: Canva pro

An earlier version of the bill wasintroduced in Congress in the spring of 2023but failed for lack of a final vote in either theHouse or Senate.97
