Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Subject Site is a somewhat rectangular area of approximately 28.0 acres running southwest to northeast. The Tucumcari Truck Terminal was operated continuously since construction of the first truck stop structures in 1958 located in Area A up until the Terminal's closure in approximately 2004. During the 1950s there was also a drive-in theater located in the vicinity of Areas B and C. The Phillips and Shipley families owned the property as a corporation that they had formed in the mid 1950s. Mr. Shipley was the last Shipley family owner before his interests in the Subject Site were bought by the Phillips family in approximately 1999. Following a Phase I ESA (NMED TBA on behalf of the City of Tucumcari) a private entity purchased the property in July 2024. EPA conducted Phase II ESA activities in Aug. 2024. It is anticipated that the site will go to the State funded remediation program for remediation of soil and groundwater. Redevelopment began in Sept. 2024 as a new truck stop.
