all of downtown
My idea to improve this place
Replace city asphalt parking lots with Public fountains ... like Seattle's City Center Fountain. They did it and it doesn't even get hot in Seattle!
So that people could...
cool off and really use the fountains
Because I want San Antonio to be...
more people focused

Remove the parking and create a greenspace that honors the Tejano community of Laredito that was one there and the Texas patriot Jose Antonio Navarro who's homestead is across the the parking lot.

get rid of the parking lot and parking on Laredo. Put a public fountain that we can actually use to cool of like they did with Crown fountain in Chicago's Millennium Park

Relocate this facility out of the downtown area.It is a tourist stopper and disrespectful reminder of how the Hispanic areas of town were bulldozed for city, county and federal buildings. Make a park.
