    SUNLAND PARK – The U.S. Border Patrol is erecting an 18-foot-tall steel fence in the last stretch of unwalled, urban borderline in New Mexico.

    The new fencing will create a more secure and imposing barrier in a location that is deeply symbolic to immigration activists and often problematic for U.S. border enforcers.

    Construction equipment sits near the temporary fence along the U.S.-Mexico border near Sunland Park. The fence is scheduled to be replaced by an 18-foot-tall steel structure. (Roberto E. Rosales/Journal)
