Uptown Albuquerque has evolved into an upscale shopping district
Uptown is a trendy pocket of Albuquerque filled with numerous upscale stores and restaurants, but it wasn’t always that way. “It’s one of the newest, coolest, hippest areas,” says Chris Shain Tanner, a team lead with Keller Williams Realty and the president of the Greater Albuquerque Association of Realtors. “There’s been a ton of intentional commercial development into old, dilapidated areas — especially the Winrock mall, which wasn’t utilized heavily for decades.” Winrock Town Center is one of three major shopping centers in the neighborhood; one of its most recent upgrades is a new green space with artistic touches. “There have been revitalization projects that have been attempted and were not successful. Uptown is not one of them. … It’s one of our success projects,” Tanner says.
Uptown locals frequent ABQ Uptown for its open-air mall.
Uptown is home to the Winrock Town Center, which offers many shops and a movie theater.

Midcentury ranch-style homes, condos and apartments in Uptown
While Uptown is dense with apartments — over 60% of residents rent their homes — detached midcentury homes and condos make up the other share of the housing market. Ranch-style homes built during the 1950s and the 1960s come with paved or tiled back patios, ranging between $215,000 and $525,000. Studio units, as well as one- and two-bedroom condos, in the Winrock Villas Condos community go from $100,000 to $210,000. These homes come with monthly homeowners association (HOA) fees that range between $250 and $530, covering utilities, property taxes and on-site security. Mid-rise luxury units in the middle of the neighborhood’s commercial district fetch from $560,000 to $1.2 million; HOA fees range from $750 to over $1,200.
Well-maintained ranch-style homes with covered porches and attached garages remain a staple of Uptown’s housing stock.
Low-rise condo communities like Winrock Villas Condos offer a more compact housing option within Uptown’s residential mix.

Several shopping centers and a number of upscale chain restaurants
South of Menaul Boulevard, Uptown is filled with stores and upscale chain restaurants. The Coronado Center is anchored by Macy’s, while the ABQ Uptown mall has national names, like Pottery Barn, Gap, Anthropologie and Carhartt. Winrock Town Center is also nearby, with stores like Dillard’s and Nordstrom Rack. Trader Joe’s and Target are in the mix as well. Upscale chain restaurants, including The Cheesecake Factory, Fogo de Chao Brazilian and Ruth’s Chris Steak House, are sprinkled throughout these shopping complexes. In the same vein, Season 52 serves upscale dishes, like Kona-crusted lamb loin, Chilean sea bass and Maine lobster tail, paired with seasonal cocktails and an extensive selection of wine. “That’s where I chose to take our board for our Christmas party,” Tanner says. “It has smaller portions and more reasonable prices.” For a more laid-back meal, shoppers can stop by Sunnyside Up for skillets, scrambles and other breakfast classics.
Coronado Mall is a wonderful shopping option for those living in Uptown.
Uptown offers the convenience of having Trader Joe's nearby for specialty foods and everyday favorites.

Winrock Town Center’s new green space and nearby tennis courts
Green space and outdoor recreation are consciously incorporated into Uptown’s design. Winrock Town Center boasts a newly developed green space, accented by an abstract sculpture and a rocky pond with tumbling waters. The space, which opened in 2024, sits between the mall’s stores and serves as a gathering place, especially for holiday celebrations. Walking paths encircle a playground, a soccer field and tennis courts at Jerry Cline Park, across the highway. Tennis players will find six more courts in Zuni Park, tucked in a more residential pocket of Uptown.
Winrock Park in Uptown hosts community gatherings and family-friendly events.
