SAN ANTONIO | 300 Main | 388 FT | 32 FLOORS

A proposal for the new tallest all-residential building in San Antonio has moved forward and was recently approved just before the end of December 2021. Currently, the location is a large surface lot across the street from the Weston Centre, the HQ of Weston Urban who is developing this tower. Weston Urban was the developer of Frost Bank's stunning HQ a block away, affectionately known as "the drill bit."

354 apartments and 6k sq ft of commercial space at the street are the major components of this project. Groundbreaking is expected later this year with delivery potentially as early as late 2024.

Inoffensive design, but also on the taller end for the skyline. Overall not bad.

This week, construction barricades were placed around the parking lot bound by North Main, West Pecan, Soledad and East Travis streets, where Weston Urban has begun preliminary work on its 32-story luxury apartment tower. On Saturday, parts of the lot’s surface had been punctured by lighter construction machinery.

The barricades were positioned around the lot earlier in the week, said tenants of the shopping strip across North Main Avenue.

Weston Urban’s plan to build the most ambitious residential project in downtown San Antonio’s history first surfaced in late 2020. Since then, it’s been one of the most anticipated developments in recent memory.

Projects of this scale, in terms of number of units, usually take two years to complete.

The local developer, led by tech multimillionaire Graham Weston, plans to build roughly 350 market-rate units inside the 400-foot tower, which would be by far the tallest residential structure in San Antonio. The project, estimated to cost $107 million, also includes roughly 6,000 square feet of retail, and a parking garage with 456 spaces.

Taken from the city's page on the Texas subforum, just to bring onto the proposals page. This can be moved to U/C probably before the end of June.

It's kind of a lame building. I really like SA, so it's nice to see new development even if it's boring.

They have few modern talls, though, so I think it's going to take a few "lame buildings" before they bulk up their skyline and start filling it in with more flashy ones. Besides, it's not like they don't have some nice buildings. The new Frost Bank Tower for example is a really cool building.
