– If you have been in and around downtown San Antonio recently you know there is a lot of traffic, construction and cranes. The Alamo City continues to grow, both out and up.
Matt Brown, CEO of Centro San Antonio, said the goal of all the construction is to make the downtown area a place people want to live, play and work again. “I just want to have a lot more fun and a lot more play. And I hope we get to see a lot more of that in this coming year,” Brown said.“If you look at the city, it has a strategy plan called ‘The SA Tomorrow’ and it has these 13 different regional centers and one’s the downtown retail center and it includes both Southtown and Lone Star. I think the The Pearl is just outside of it maybe,” Brown said.“Frost Tower is spectacular.
The Centro San Antonio CEO said the idea is for downtown to actually go back-in-time to where people worked, lived, and went out. The area’s foundation is already filled full with culture, ideas and personality. “I know some of the construction is going to come to an end and that will feel really like, you know, fresh and clean and exciting. I think, for people to come down and see what’s what’s going on. And it’ll certainly make it a lot easier to come downtown to support these things,” Brown said.Brown said there is a huge demand for people to live there and now they are working on adding to the supply to meet the demand.Max Massey is the GMSA weekend anchor and a general assignments reporter.
