Sunset Heights
Historic preservation
has kept one of El Pasos
oldest neighborhoods vibrant
Story by
Lisa Kay Tate
unset Heights is not only one of El Pasos oldest neighborhoods, but one of the nations first
planned subdivisions.
The hilly area known as Sunset Heights was
purchased in 1884 by J. Fisher Satterthwaite, a
developer from New York, and by the turn of the
century, he had 1,200 lots plotted and ready to go.
Satterthwaite controlled the design and size of
the homes being built, and provided extensive
landscaping and parks, Armando JimarezCortez, a UTEP graduate and member of
American Institute of Architects, wrote in an
extensive study of the neighborhood in 1990. As
such, it was one of the first planned subdivisions
in the United States. The first residents were
wealthy Anglo and Mexican professionals.
Located between Downtown and the University
of Texas El Paso, Sunset Heights now attracts
young professionals, artists and students as well,
and its dedication to historical preservation brings
in many with the desire and means for breathing
new life into some of the citys older homes.
The historic neighborhoods boundaries are in
the north at Schuster Avenue and UTEP, to the
south and west at Interstate 10 and in the east at
Mesa Street and the Rio Grande Campus of El
Paso Community College.
This diverse community has encouraged a family-like atmosphere of neighbors helping and supporting neighbors via an active neighborhood
improvement association and annual events.
October is one of the best months to rediscover
Sunset Heights, as it is not only the time for its
biggest fundraising project, the Oct. 8 Tour of
Homes, where a handful of neighborhood houses
are open to visitors, but also one of Sunset
Heights best kept secrets, its block party, scheduled for Oct. 29.
The early residents of Sunset Heights desired
homes on hillsides overlooking Downtown.
Although many of todays planned communities
October 2016
N
contain homes representing one or two builders,
or homes with similar designs, Sunset Heights
homes represented several architectural styles,
including buildings by Trost & Trost. The El Paso
architectural firm, one of the leading builders in
the Southwest during the early decades of the
20th century, was led by Henry C. Trost, whose
home remains one of the landmarks of the neighborhood. The Trost home will not be part of the
tour this year, but remains a frequently photographed site in the neighborhood.
Queen Anne, Classical Revival, Spanish Colonial
and many more architectural styles are found
within the area.
The neighborhood is unified, however, by other
elements such as masonry construction, two level
design, architectural ornamentation, symmetrical
facades and fenestration, and landscaping,
Jimarez-Cortez wrote.
This neighborhood wasnt without its design
issues. Its street pattern is asymmetrical, because
the hilly area, designed before the common use of
automobiles, called for a more creative layout.
By the 1960s, much of housing along the southern and western boundaries was demolished to
make room for Interstate 10, and by the 1970s,
many of the areas once distinguished homes
were falling to neglect.
The area was designated a historic district in
1984, which helped to preserve it. The historic
designation, however, often adds expense and
delays for residents to make improvements or
changes to their homes. Preserving the historic
neighborhood is well worth it, said Robert Diaz,
archivist and historian for the El Paso County
Historical Society
Sunset Heights, once one of the more affluent
neighborhoods in the city, has been the site of
meetings between high ranking officials on both
sides of the Mexican Revolution, home to many

My hope is to help Insights establish a
solid foundation enabling it to support a

Kirchgessner said.
My biggest aim for this year is to get a

keep it going.
We are starting to work with major funders and also to apply for grants such as
one from the National Science Foundation,
which has a $5 million museum grant that
can awarded to an individual venue. It
would be much easier to get local funding
if we get national funders and sponsors on
board. Ultimately this challenge will be in

The last time we were visited by this honkytonk singer, he was on the verge of releasing
his 15th album, Second Hand Heart. Now
his very first bluegrass LP has come out:
Swimmin Pools, Movie Stars... The collection reinterprets favorites from his own
work, but the career of Dwight Yoakam
should not be brushed over with a simple
most recent stroke. His career is at the
three decades mark, with a drawl that is
instantly recognizable and guitar playing that
usually finds itself playing whack-a-mole
with country, rockabilly and honky-tonk. If
somehow all this is foreign to you, look no
further than your favorite cover version of
Queens Crazy Little Thing Called Love or
Elvis Presleys Suspicious Minds, and with
the latest, Princes Purple Rain, or countless others. He has four full CDs dedicated
to others material and each is full of surprises. To witness his foray into bluegrass the
date is Oct. 13 at the Abraham Chavez
Theatre, although with Yoakams incredible
catalogue bluegrass most assuredly wont
dominate the night.
El Paso Scene
Many artists never gain the mainstream spotlight despite their brilliance, and it is a blessing when they are not discouraged by this
injustice. This is absolutely the case with
Butch Walker. The guy who just might have
released the album of the year is a writing
machine. While creating his latest masterpiece, he actually spent most of his time
writing and producing for names like Taylor
Swift, Panic at the Disco, Dashboard
Confessional, Keith Urban and Weezer. Since
2002, he has released eight studio albums,
four EPs, and two live collections. He began
with his band the Marvelous 3, who only
stuck together for a little more than three
years apparently they were not really fond
of commitment and a solo career had
bloomed. Stay Gold is his latest and he has
returned back to tongue-in-cheek lyrics, with
Mexican Coke winning the prize in that
category. The CD is of course slathered with
a guitar-driven pop sound, and there isnt a
clunker in the lot. After last years Afraid of
Ghosts stripped-down sound, I feared he
was abandoning his gift of creating bountiful
hooks. Stay Gold should find a home on
the charts, stay there and turn gold.
