A fire destroyed tents at a homeless encampment in Albuquerque, sparking debate over homelessness and safety.
A fire destroyed several tents at a homeless encampment in the parking lot of Quirky Books in Albuquerque on December 22, 2025, with no injuries reported.
The encampment, located near Central Avenue, has been the center of a legal and public safety dispute between the bookstore owner, Gillam Kerley, and city officials who cite ongoing concerns about crime, drug use, and public nuisance.
The city has already obtained a judge’s ruling declaring the site a public nuisance and filed a new motion for immediate closure, despite over 1,300 shelter beds being available citywide.
The fire, which occurred amid a series of recent fires in the Nob Hill area, including one at a vacant building on Vassar Drive, has reignited debate over how to address homelessness and safety.
Fire investigators are probing the cause, while city officials and volunteers continue efforts to assist affected individuals.
