The Duke City
I'm stepping up to answer the household question of the week: Why is Albuquerque called The Duke City?
The answer is simple, my friends. Albuquerque was named after
Francisco Fernández de la Cueva
, Duke of
Alburquerque
, viceroy of New Spain.
Note that Alburquerque is not a typo. There was originally another r in Albuquerque which was dropped in the 19th century.
