  • Teddy Roe's Speakeasy Remodel

    M’Tucci’s Bar Roma

    Owner: 3222 Central LLC

    Developer: Geltmore LLC

    General Contractor: AIC General Contractor

    Architect: Modulus Design/Design Plus

    Engineers: Testudo

    This 14,340-square-foot location consists of two buildings: the main building is the restaurant — which aims to provide visitors the full experience of Rome’s feel and flavor — and the rear garage, which has been converted to a production kitchen making the bread, pasta, sauces and some of the cured meats for all four M’tucci’s locations. M’tucci’s speakeasy Teddy Roe’s is also located on the property. Originally called the Jones Motor Co. Building, the location was built in 1939 and designed by Tom Danahy in an Art Moderne style. This building was one of the first icons encountered by travelers heading Westbound on Route 66. In 1993, the property was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties and the National Register of Historic Places. Later, in 2001, the property was designated as a protected city landmark. The building had fallen largely into disrepair before the project.
