Merchants seek change to street switch on First Street
A May meeting of Albuquerque's Retail Merchants Association endorsed a resolution asking the city to relocate the Albuquerque Traction Company switch on First Street west of the Alvarado hotel. They cite narrow street width, limited passage for teams, and danger to pedestrians and vehicles. The merchants also urged American Lumber Company to shift its pay day from the 15th to the 16th to align with Santa Fe and Lumber company paydays, reducing the need to stay open two extra nights. The motion, signed by sixty five merchants, was presented to the mayor and city council.
