Riverside is a former village, now a suburb of

NM Route 68 just north of U.S. Route 285 and just south of the former village of Santa Niño. To the southeast is the former village of San Pedro.[3]

History

As early as 800 A.D. the area was being intensively farmed by the

The Pueblo Lands Act
of 1924, when a decision of the Lands Board set, or identified, the present southern border of San Juan Pueblo just north of Santa Niño.

In 1941, the Oñate Bridge was built across the Rio Grande connecting Española and Riverside,[5] which afterwards was annexed by Española.[2]
