What is innovation to you? Is it a new idea or method? Perhaps a traditional twist on an old puzzle. Many times the solutions to age-old problems can be solved with new technology, but its not surprising when solutions come from old knowledge applied in a new way.
Learning, laughing, and exploreing in the Blacksmith Shop, you can't help but feel the echoes of the innovation that forged the walls. The boom of the rail road era brought a surge of industrial activity to the heart of New Mexico, the historic Camino Rael vein, and the rise of the Rail Yards was the single most important factor in transforming Albuquerque from a farming village to a booming epicenter City. The Rail Yards Market, forged in 2014, was an innovative concept that came to fruition by many passionate neighbhorhood residents and community members that all beleived in activating the Rail Yards; our Albuquerque icon of innovation.
