Nice shot! I've always loved that look down St. Mary's at night.

The old buildings add so much character to the city. They're especially important at street level as new glass and concrete buildings get built bigger, but generally have more attention paid to the upper portions of their structures, and less attention paid to the aesthetics of their parking garages, by the architects who design them.

God how baller would Tower Life be if the body of it were lit up as well?

Somebody make it happen. San Antonio needs better night light on buildings.

That seems to be the promenade path that starts from the water shallows (those rectangular concrete beds). I think it might also be a water feature as I've seen renderings with a stream running thorough it all the way to the Zocalo area

All credit to "J22 NetFly Innovations" on Youtube as this was a still from some drone footage. Just thought to share as we can see some more visible progress on the 10 story hotel / 300 Main. If you squint you can also see the new signage on City Tower they added last week

Believe it or not, this is also the best view I've seen in a while of the developments in The Pearl. So thanks for posting!

Don't mention it!
I agree about the view, its so neat to see all of the developments in progress from that perspective. I will try to share links from time-to-time that are similar to this

It's mostly nice looking buildings. Minus that ugly white one on the right and Frost's parking garage. Old Frost isn't great, but it's good for Brutalism.

They are zoomed in just a tad now- you can see some of the construction more clearly which is cool
