Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency
What is the MRA?
The Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency (MRA) is a City of Santa Fe agency charged with guiding the revitalization and transformation of the Midtown District into a vibrant, equitable, and sustainable mixed-use hub.
Our Key Priorities:
- Housing & Neighborhood Stabilization – expand housing options, protect affordability, and minimize displacement in surrounding neighborhoods.
- Economic Growth & Jobs – attract investment, support local businesses, and create pathways to quality employment.
- Arts, Culture & Education – build on Midtown’s legacy as a creative and educational center with cultural venues, film and media, and community arts.
- Sustainability & Connectivity – promote environmentally responsible design, green infrastructure, and walkable, multimodal connections across Midtown.
Drawing on real estate expertise and an entrepreneurial spirit, the MRA collaborates with community members and development professionals to pursue "triple bottom line" initiatives—prioritizing economic vitality, social equity, and environmental health in neighborhoods where people live, work, play, and learn.
