“Neighborhoods and Shared Memories: Hacienda Heights to Ranchland,” 1950 – 1990. Once dairy farms and desert, the Lower Valley area boomed post-World War II as families were able to build or purchase their first homes. The tightly-knit community of Black, Mexican, and white families represented a diverse working and middle class neighborhood in the wake of desegregation. The exhibit showcases how schools, businesses, and the changing socio-economic landscape influenced the area’s identity and the people who made their homes there.
This exhibit is part of an ongoing series that features historic neighborhoods throughout El Paso. Previously exhibited neighborhoods included Chihuahuita, Segundo Barrio, Sunset Heights, Manhattan Heights, South Central, Rio Grande, and Franklin Heights.
