Nob Hill Outreach Event Thursday Night (3/26) at O'Neill's




At this month's outreach event (3/26), the Nob Hill Neighborhood Association brings you presentations from the Nob Hill Merchant Association about its recent application for Main Street Program funding from the State of New Mexico and the City of Albuquerque's Solid Waste Department about upcoming changes in solid waste collection. Each presenter will discuss how their program/department will impact the neighborhood and take questions. As always, there will be food provided by the Association and a cash bar provided by O'Neill's Pub.
