1UP Dispensary Opens Curated Cannabis Retail Experience on Historic Route 66 in Downtown Albuquerque

ALBUQUERQUE, NM, April 16, 2026 -- 1UP Dispensary, a licensed cannabis retail store located at 301 Central Ave NW in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico, is welcoming residents and visitors to its curated retail location along the historic Route 66 corridor.

Situated at the prominent intersection of Third Street and Central Avenue, 1UP Dispensary occupies a highly visible storefront in one of downtown Albuquerque's most well-trafficked commercial areas. The dispensary serves both recreational customers aged 21 and older, as well as registered medical cannabis patients throughout the Albuquerque metro area.

The downtown location reflects a deliberate strategy to integrate licensed cannabis retail into established commercial districts. Rather than operating on the periphery, 1UP Dispensary has positioned itself within walking distance of local restaurants, galleries, entertainment venues, and other small businesses that define the Central Avenue business corridor.

"We chose this location because Central Avenue is the heart of Albuquerque. It has decades of history as a gathering place for the community, and we wanted to be part of that tradition rather than apart from it," said Brandon Heckman, owner of 1UP Dispensary. "Our customers appreciate the convenience and the experience of shopping in a neighborhood they already know and love."

1UP Dispensary features a carefully selected inventory of premium cannabis products sourced from licensed cultivators and producers across New Mexico. The product lineup includes locally grown flower, edibles, concentrates, pre-rolls, and accessories. Trained staff members are available to guide customers through product selections based on individual preferences and desired effects.

New Mexico's regulated cannabis market continues to expand, with licensed retailers contributing meaningfully to local employment and municipal tax revenue. The downtown Albuquerque area has experienced a wave of new retail and hospitality openings in recent months, and 1UP Dispensary is part of that broader revitalization trend.

The dispensary is open seven days a week from 10am to 11pm, offering extended hours for the convenience of its diverse customer base. For more information about products, specials, and hours of operation, visit www.1upabq.com or call (505) 270-1207.
