Fast forward to today. Over the past three months, Albuquerque police have responded to two homicides and the discovery of a body found off Tramway and Interstate 40, the gateway to the old Route 66 and Four Hills neighborhood. Two blocks west of Tramway, a far East Central trailer park was the scene of a recent FBI search of a purported gang leader’s “stash house” where agents seized seven firearms, including two shotguns and an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle. From Tramway to Eubank, the two-mile stretch of far East Central Avenue is peppered with closed businesses, sometimes aggressive transients, open displays of illegal drug use, mental illness, vandalism and trash, area residents say.
