The story of Madrid all starts with one man, Oscar Huber. Madrid was a coal-mining town owned by the Albuquerque and Cerrillos Coal Company. Huber started with the company in 1910 and became superintendent after a few years then eventually buying the company. Electricity was unavailable to homes as late as 1913. Generated in a company powerhouse, electricity was limited to company uses only. After Huber acquired the company, he paved the streets, built new homes on lots made vacant by fires, constructed a six room hospital and made arrangements for unlimited use of electricity and much, much more. Oscar Huber made Madrid a town proud of itself.
