Things to
Consider about San Antonio:
Each part of San Antonio is unique and its diversity is a great strength. While San Antonio is the nation’s tenth largest city, it is in fact a collection of small towns. San Antonio is nothing more than a number of distinctive small communities linked together by geography.
San Antonio is so very old that the growth in the city has been like rings around a tree trunk with the downtown area being the core of the city. San Antonio is a collection of individual neighborhoods and suburban areas radiating from downtown. This makes living downtown a great advantage as all roads lead to and from downtown.
San Antonio is laid out very much as a hub and spoke city. This is because of its central Texas location and the fact that historically roads radiated from the city in all directions.
There are wonderful advantages to living downtown, including the beautiful riverwalk, the VIA trolleys, the restaurants, and many cultural and social events going on all the time.
Downtown San Antonio begins with the Alamo. The Alamo is a well known landmark and hopefully you know something of its
history, if not click on it.
The building at the
right is less well known so I will tell you its story. From its completion in
the summer of 1929 until the 1950’s it was the tallest building west of the Mississippi. It is presently known as the Tower Life Building after the insurance company
that owns it. It was originally named the Smith Young Tower after its
developers. A 31 story, eight sided, neo-Gothic "skyscraper," which
I think is reminiscent of the Empire State Building in style, if not size. The
building has unique features, such as its rain spouts; which are gargoyles
intended by Mr. Smith and Young to ward off evil spirits. They did not work
their magic. The completion of the building came just a few months before the
stock market crash of 1929, which sealed the economic fate of Mr. Smith and Mr.
Young. To me the building is symbolic of San Antonio in that it has never been
abandoned or mistreated even though it fell upon hard times. It also
represents the economic daring San Antonians are known to exhibit on occasion.

Okay, I have been involved with real estate since 1984. I consider myself the very best locator in San Antonio and I CAN HELP YOU.

I can also send you an email list of properties with directions to help you look on your own, and you are welcome to use my help this way. I have two databases where you can find information about just about all of San Antonio’s rental properties.

We need to make an appointment for the day you are in town. If you have to know ahead of time, you will need to fly in and I will assist you in evaluating all your leasing options in one day.
