RENTCaf Blog: New Public and Private Buildings Shine in Sun City

A nationwide internet listing service recently highlighted several projects that have significantly changed El Paso’s landscape.

From the Children’s Hospital to the Southwest University Park, RENTCaf showed in a recent article how the area looked before new private and public buildings were constructed.

According to its website, RENTCaf is a nationwide internet listing service that enables renters to easily find apartments and houses for rent throughout the United States. Its search tool delivers a comprehensive list of nationally available rental properties that allow renters to search, compare, and submit rental applications with ease.

In an article titled, “El Paso: New Public and Private Buildings Shine in Sun City,” RENTCaf showed how the once sleepy town of El Paso is “once again sparkling” with new construction:

El Paso, guardian of a natural pass through a rugged mountainous region, was a sleepy gathering of adobe huts until the railroads arrived in the 1880s. By the dawn of the new century the booming town was the dominant commercial center of the American Southwest.

In the 21st century, El Paso, nicknamed “The Sun City” for its more than 350 cloudless days a year, is once again sparkling with new construction, often inspired by the Spanish missions that were emulated in the city’s earliest architecture. Come along with us to explore El Paso’s evolving streetscape, from 2007 to 2015.
