Max Q @ Kirtland is a ground up 70 acre development on Air Force Base land that will service one of the largest employment centers in New Mexico. This mixed-use project will be broken into four phases. The first phase consists of approximately 19 acres east of Carlisle Blvd and broke ground in March of 2022. The first phase is proposed to be a high density mixed-use “town center” style development with ground floor retail, drive-thru, hotels, restaurants, office, and R&D space. The development is available for ground lease, build-to-suit or to lease inline and end-cap drive-thru spaces in spec buildings. The site plan is subject to change based on the needs of tenants as the project evolves.
Located in SE Albuquerque on Gibson Blvd between Carlisle Blvd & Truman St, Max Q is made possible by an EUL (Enhanced Use Lease) with Kirtland Air Force Base on base land (made available to the private sector) and is 1.85 miles from the Sandia National Laboratories gate; 1.25 miles from the Albuquerque International Sunport; 0.75 miles from the US Department of Veteran Affairs and 2 miles from the University of New Mexico. This site is also a mile away from recently constructed Chick-Fil-A, Starbucks, Whataburger, Blake’s Lotaburger, Chili’s, Buffalo Wild Wings and Dion’s. This submarket is home to the largest employment centers in the state of New Mexico and is largely underserved for retail amenities.
