The iconic Bliss Building in Albuquerque—home to Lindy’s Diner—is finally gone, completely demolished after a partial collapse in April and a city intervention due to asbestos discovery. The diner was shut down before the collapse for safety, and now the owners are preparing legal action against State Farm and the City of Albuquerque, turning this demolition into a messy, multi-front battle.

A historic Santa Fe landmark, Saint Catherine’s Indian School — once home to Native and African American students and later a living community — was destroyed in a devastating fire that erupted Thursday afternoon. Firefighters battled the blaze through the night and returned Friday as hot spots reignited, using massive water volumes to contain the flames. The girls’ dormitory and the oldest part of the campus, the convent, are lost forever, sparking deep sorrow among former students and residents. Authorities arrested a 35-year-old man for trespassing and are seeking a warrant to test his hands. The property’s planned restoration is now in jeopardy, leaving the community to grapple with the loss of a cherished piece of history.

Hot temps are brewing across the state, with Saturday hitting mid-90s to low 100s and dry conditions fueling high fire danger—though isolated thunderstorms may pop up in mountains and eastern New Mexico. Sunday brings a slight cooldown with more moisture and afternoon thunderstorms, possibly heavy with lightning and wind. Next week, heat sticks around with afternoon storms likely, especially in central and eastern areas as monsoon season ramps up. Stay alert—any spark could ignite a wildfire, especially with the holiday weekend approaching.

In October 2025, Albuquerque police responded to a chilling report of a toddler found wandering alone in a shirt and dirty diaper—matted hair, scratches, and dried blood told a grim story. Neighbors led them to a filthy, odor-filled home where they found four small children, ages three to seven, suffering visible neglect, and two parents, Jonathan Garcia and Vanessa Salazar, who were arrested on multiple child abuse charges. One child even tested positive for drugs. The kids were hospitalized and placed in state custody as the trial looms later this year—a harrowing case exposing the devastating toll of parental neglect on the most vulnerable.
