As one of San Antonio’s biggest boosters I hate to say this, but San Antonio and most San Antonians have a huge problem with living in the past and reactive behavior. San Antonio needs to get over its glory day mentality and focus on what will once again make this city great. I couldn’t care less if this building is torn down or that it is the location of the first Spanish speaking station in the United States. I do care that outside our abundant mariachis and Mexican Restaurants the city is uneventful in modern Latin, Mexican, or Hispanic culture. I care more that Univision is headquartered in New York or most production is done in Miami, while San Antonio doesn’t even produce telenovelas, than I do about this insignificant building. Over time, complacency has made San Antonio less significant and it will only continue unless the mentality changes. San Antonio is forfeiting a bright future by trying to re-experience the past. Sorry for the rant.
