Santa Fe neighborhood guide
Historic Eastside, Santa Fe
The Historic Eastside is closely associated with Santa Fe's older residential streets and architectural heritage. The city's Downtown and Eastside Historic District includes the Canyon Road, Acequia Madre, Camino del Monte Sol and East Palace Avenue neighborhoods.
Architecture and setting
The district includes historic Spanish-Pueblo and Territorial architecture as well as later revival styles. Narrow streets, older compounds and acequia corridors are part of its character. Individual homes vary greatly in age, construction and condition.
Historic review matters
A property within a designated historic district may be subject to review for exterior alterations and new construction. Before making plans for renovations, confirm the address, district status, permit requirements and current rules with the City of Santa Fe.
What buyers should compare
Ask about roof and drainage condition, adobe or other wall systems, heating and cooling, parking, access, water and sewer, property boundaries and any applicable historic restrictions. Have qualified local inspectors assess the particular property.
