Spread This Idea

Where

Within a 3 to 5 block walk to the downtown portion of the riverwalk.

My idea to improve this place

The worst thing about coming downtown is that there is not enough free/inexpensive parking and meter maids are always on the prowl. Figure how to provide better/cheaper parking.

So that people could... 

So that people could enjoy all that downtown and the riverwalk has to offer

Because I want San Antonio to be...

Because I want downtown to be a fun experience without spending a small fortune on parking.

I agree. I live downtown and feed the meters very often. The new machines are easy to use, but for the older citizens very confusing. There should be a cap on the amount private parking lots can charge during special events or everyday use. Some charge up to 2.00 for 1/2 hr and sometimes you have no choice when meters aren't available.

Parking is an issue and prevents many of us from going downtown because parking is a hassle and an expense.

Capitalize on current potential and historical significance by showcasing current artists and shops better, while adding complementary uses. Streamline hours of operation and events/education.

All of Downtown San Antonio, 0.09 Kms

Provide some safe, welcoming parking options near La Villita and HemisFair Park. Both are gems in our city that are underutilized because SA residents cannot easily access them.
