Continue straight down the zaguán (carriageway) to Patio Market. A branded board on the ceiling of the gateway seems to authenticate the property as belonging to Ambrosia Armijo. The fountain in this placita originally supplied the home with water. The buildings around you were the servants quarters for the Armijo Hacienda. Rooms were later converted into a schoolhouse, and later still into a boutique and photo gallery. Exit the patio on the east side.
Turn left and walk through Plaza Hacienda. This secluded plaza with an outdoor kiva fireplace previously served as a hot spot for romantic rendezvous and thus became colloquially known as Honeymoon Row. The buildings also used to be the stables for the Armijo Hacienda and the Blueher House, which stands to the immediate northwest of Plaza Hacienda. German immigrant Herman Blueher introduced draft horses to Albuquerque in the early 1900s. His house was intact as recently as 1950, but soon after was “pueblo-ized” for its conversion to La Hacienda Restaurant. However, from this vantage point behind the restaurant, traces of the original Italianate style are evident.
