Spanish Villas (residential with street level retail)
This urban project will mix Spanish villa style mutli-family with retail on the street level. This project is being built adjacent Galo's Promenade Place development. These developments are surrounded by student housing and are also adjacent to La Cantera.

I created this map to show how much North Campus/West La Cantera is growing.

Did Galo ever develop that property they had off of 1604 I-10?

That's good to hear. I will be in SA for a week over thanksgiving so that will give me time to go explore all the new developments in town. Anyone think the retail segment in San Antonio has been built out or is there room to grow? The San Antonio of 1o years ago and today are so different....really is wild when you think about it but I love it!

What's the population density of that area?

So not too many.
Maybe the retail may work. |
If the retail is student friendly, I can practically guarantee that it will work.

Some 18,000 students live within 1 mile of the UTSA campus. The only area with more concentrated multifamily housing is the medical center. |
The parcel of land that this will be built on is closer to on-campus housing than the UC (which is where most of the on-campus activities and 'stores' are). I, for one, would much rather walk from Laurel Village underneath 1604 and into this to get lunch or shop than have to walk to the UC, drive somewhere, or eat at cafe (which has horrible food, btw). Like I said: if it is student friendly, it will succeed.
