About
the Hubbell Property
The
Hubbell Property is part of a 1500-acre Bernalillo County Major
Open Space Network and is one of several Public Open Space sites
in the South Valley. The property consists of a 5700 square-foot,
150 year-old adobe hacienda situated on 10 acres of cultivated farmland.
The house features 28-inch thick walls and 10-foot ceilings with
pine vigas.
Situated
along El Camino Real, the oldest continuously used European roadway
in North America, the Hubbell Property is listed on the New Mexico
Register of Cultural Properties.
James
and Juliana Gutierrez-Hubbell had 12 children, all of whom were born in the
Hubbell House. Juan "Lorenzo" Hubbell was the second son
and third born of James and Juliana. Like
his father, Lorenzo became a merchant and trader with the "Indians"
and established the Hubbell Trading Post in Ganado, Arizona, which
today is a historic site managed by the National Park Service.

Prominent
in the local and regional history, the Hubbell Property serves as
the centerpiece of the Pajarito community and is a natural focal
point for community building and area pride.
