Isleta Pueblo Administration Building < Back Isleta Pueblo Administration Building The Schematic Design phase of this project has been successfully completed. However, due to the impact of COVID, its progress is currently on hold. Once operational, the facility will serve as a centralized hub for all Pueblo Administrative staff, streamlining various departments under one roof. As the administrative functions are currently scattered across the Pueblo, this facility aims to bring together essential departments, including Transportation, Design & Construction, Survey & Mapping, Environment, Public Works, Natural Resources, Procurement, Treasury, Human Resources, Water Resources, and Isleta Pueblo Housing Authority. This consolidation will significantly benefit the Pueblo community by enhancing accessibility and convenience for administrative services. The planned facility also includes a spacious training room designed to double as an Emergency Operation Center when needed. This multi-purpose space ensures the Pueblo is prepared to respond effectively to any emergency situation that may arise. Although the project is currently on hold, the completion of the Schematic Design phase marks a promising step towards creating a highly functional and efficient administrative center for the Pueblo. Once resumed, the facility will serve as a cornerstone for improved administrative services and emergency preparedness within the community.

San Felipe Master Plan < Back San Felipe Master Plan The San Felipe Exit 252 Master Plan was developed to establish a framework for development of the 70-acre parcel of land that currently includes the Black Mesa Casino and Travel Center and Pueblo Restaurant. Recent developments including the re-branding of the casino, addition of the trucker’s lounge at the travel center and the demolition of the old racetrack has set the stage for the much-needed plan for the long-term development of the site. The primary goal was to create an “achievable plan” that included zones for future development. This master plan, while setting the stage for future development, is none the less a living document. The plan must be continually reviewed and updated as circumstances that influence the decisions made at this time may change in the future. The purpose of any master planning effort is to provide design guidelines for future development. This includes not only the physical planning and layout of the building but also the desired design criteria and standards that must be adhered to. Just as the building program provides specific sizes, and relationship of various spaces so to must the building performance criteria give specific requirements for each of the components used in the construction of the built forms.

Poeh Cultural Center Master Plan < Back Poeh Cultural Center Master Plan The proposed new park is intended to occupy the property to the northwest of the Poeh Cultural Center (PCC). The envisaged park will incorporate a Pueblo Veterans Memorial, a playground, and a fitness course. It is imperative for the park to have direct access to the outdoor activity areas of the PCC. Throughout its history, the Poeh Cultural Center has consistently expanded its offerings, collections, and archives, with an ongoing commitment to serving the Pojoaque Pueblo community and Pueblo Indians across New Mexico. With the continuous growth of collections, archives, and services, there arises a requirement for additional storage and workspace. To address this need, the Buffalo Design team has been chosen to collaborate with the staff and management of the PCC in identifying a suitable approach for expanding the existing center. The objective is to align this expansion with the overarching goals and objectives of the Poeh Cultural Center.
