Hmmm, I keep coming back to this one. I liked the open feel to the Riverwalk of the original, but I also like the increased height, balance of this new rendering.
It's not groundbreaking, but it fits. |

The hotel? Do you mean the Cambria? Is that project still a green light? |

Here's the HDRC presentation. It doesn't include much that we haven't already seen.

Surely they’ll have something new to submit to the upcoming HDRC meeting they’re on? |
With the Solodad hotel, Canopy Hotel, the Cambria (if still to be built) and the Floodgate (I believe), I am wondering how this area is going to be supported without any new parking structures. The new Frost Tower adds in new nighttime parking, but during the day...that still remains to be seen. It is hard to put in parking on some of those lots right on the River, but this might be a serious issue come a year or two from now, especially with special events that go on downtown, particularly Fiesta. On that note, this will just be another reason for parking to go up again (this year was really bad with some places charging between 30-40) with more limiting parking spaces soon to be present.
Only just recently, with the San Pedro Creek ceremony, some places (area new CPS) were charging $20 for single parking. This was absolutely absurd for a public park opening, regardless of the area around the park being private. This might be one of the downfalls for this park - absurd parking rates in and around the park equals limiting attendance which equals failing public spaces. |
Take the bus. Problem solved.

Believe me, I understand, but San Antonio will never be a Downtown centered, car-less society. San Antonio is the least likely in Texas to get there. Dallas is landlocked for that very reason. The vast majority of SA residents reside outside the CBD. Residential activity may very well increase within this district, but it won't alleviate the amount of people, who all see DT as theirs, from wanting to come there. Or are you advocating DT become so expensive, that the Southside, Westside, and Eastside, need not come?[/QUOTE] |
Ride your bike down there. I LOVE bike rides in San Antonio. Whenever I'm in town and over at the Freeman Coliseum, I ride my bike from there to downtown - taking the Hays Street Bridge along the way.
