The red outline is the current Sunset Station/Saint Paul Square District. The blue outline is what I would expand it to. I'd be similar to Victory in Dallas or Atlantic Station in Atlanta (in terms of size and scope not look and design).

I'd say a mix of Victory/Atlantic Station and Bricktown in OKC.

If it could be down, I'd want Houston St. and Commerce St. to go under the rail line in the same fashion Nolan St. does.

Nolan St. below:



I think this area has so much untapped future potential.

A commuter rail connecting SA with New Braunfels or light rail could use the tracks. I believe that is an AMTRAK line as well.

In addition, I would like to see a park at the north end of this development.

What do you think?
I think it would be great
