Regarding Grunsfeld Hubbell House.

The Grunsfeld/Hubbell House, an elegant 1883 brick cottage, is the one virtually unaltered house remaining from the heyday of the Robinson Park neighborhood. Notable features are the decorative bracketing on the gable ends and the fine carved Italianate brackets beneath the gabled roof. The house was built in 1883 by Albert Grunsfeld, a Jewish merchant who came to Albuquerque in the late 1870's and became a prominent member of the community, helping start the Commercial Club; Temple Albert, the city's Reform Synagogue, is named after him. John Lorenzo Hubbell, famous as a pioneer Navajo trader, and as proprietor of the Hubbell Trading Post in Nacho Ganados, Arizona, now a National Historic Landmark site run by the National Park Service, bought the house in 1901 and it remained in the Hubbell family until 1976.
