Castner Range

Castner Range is a former military weapons testing site that is located at the base of the Franklin Mountain Range in northeast El Paso, Texas. The area is currently threatened by residential and commercial development, but advocates for creating a Castner Range National Monument want to change that. They say green space is important in a city like El Paso, which is one of the largest urban areas in the United States, and they hope the Range will be opened to the public one day.
