Scenic Drive Post Card

Post Card of Scenic Drive, which is the best view of the city accessible by car. You can see all of El Paso and Juarez. From downtown, take Stanton St. north and go right on Rim Rd. The Rim Road neighborhood association just completed a beautiful new sidewalk so that visitors can take a walk along one of El Paso’s most beautiful views. Follow Rim Road all the way around the mountain and take a driving tour of Manhattan Heights, one of El Paso’s most beautiful historic neighborhoods. In 1932 the road was opened to the public but was not paved, in February 1933 the road was paved and reopened. http://visitelpaso.com/nature_tourism/category/6/places/39-scenic-drive http://ahs1956.com/ScenicDrive.htm
