Plans include a new commuter rail and office building for the Department of Transportation.
"The proposal calls for a mix of residential housing, retail shops and commercial outlets on the 25 acres where the department has its headquarters about 1.5 miles from the city's historic plaza.
The department proposes that a private developer pick up the tab for the design and construction of a 300,000-square-foot office building to house 900 workers, a parking garage for 900 vehicles and a "multi-modal transportation facility'' that will serve as a terminal for commuter rail that the governor has proposed between Santa Fe and Albuquerque."
