Rethinking Alamo Plaza
Published 06:53 p.m., Friday, July 13, 2012
Alamo Plaza offers an iconic piece of history and not much else.
This was the conclusion of Team Better Block, a Dallas-based company which helps cities see underutilized public spaces in new light.
“Whether you're a resident or you're from out of town, the same thing came back: I come here. I see the mission. I leave,” Andrew Howard, construction director of Team Better Block, said. “Or, I go to Ripley's.”
The idea, Howard said, is to introduce fresh elements to the plaza that would keep people there after their Alamo tour.
