What a terrible idea. I'm all for this not to happen. I've been visiting St. Edwards Park over the past 2 weeks and I love that area. A hotel that size not only wouldn't fit in, it would negatively impact Bull Creek. As the someone in the article pointed out, that whole stretch west of 360 is prone to flooding. The automatic flood gate is just feet away from the intersection and there are several low crossings over the creek for more than 2 miles. If the guy who is proposing this hotel has visited the area like he says, he would know that. Any future flood of Bull Creek would cut acess to hotel.

The road itself is rual in nature and isn't designed for such a large development.
