Where

Houston, 3rd & Bonham Intersection

My idea to improve this place

Construct roundabout and convert Houston to two-way. Modify streets adjacent to Alamo to provide streetscaping, seating, landscaping and plaza space commensurate with the historic nature of the area.

So that people could... 

Easily find their way from IH-37 Houston St. Exit and can turn left onto Houston Street. Pedestrians would experience a pleasant place to walk, sit and enjoy landscaping and historic information about the Alamo.

Because I want San Antonio to be...

a world-class city.
