Residents invited to ceremony celebrating to Scenic Drive 100th Anniversary

El Paso City Representative Alexandra Annello, District 2, and City  Representative Peter Svarzbein, District 1, invite the public to pay tribute to  one of El Paso’s most famous landmarks. 

Scenic Drive marked its 100th anniversary with little fanfare in 2020 due to gathering restrictions designed to reduce the spread of Covid-19. 

Annello and Svarzbein commissioned a plaque to commemorate the 100-year  milestone of one of the most iconic roadways in El Paso. The plaque will be  unveiled at the ceremony. 

Scenic Drive will be closed to vehicular traffic as part of  Scenic Sundays which takes place every Sunday. The roadway closes to  vehicular traffic to allow runners, joggers, walkers, and cyclists an opportunity  to take in the panoramic view of the city from the Franklin Mountains.
