Occasionally film crews working in the neighborhood may mean intermittent traffic control (film staff directing or temporarily halting traffic) temporary street closures or detours. We hope you will bear with us and support the film industry which serves both as a source of income for New Mexico and our neighborhood, and as a showcase for Albuquerque.

One production that films in the UHA fairly regularly is the emmy award-winning AMC television drama Breaking Bad. If you watch the show regularly you will no doubt recognize many parts of Albuquerque, including the UHA neighborhood, as Breaking Bad is filmed entirely in Albuquerque.

With this in mind, now that the Albuquerque Film Office is providing notice of productions working in the area we will do our best to update the UHA website with that information as it becomes available.
