SAN ANTONIO - Construction is kicking off for two new housing developments in Southtown.
One of the sites was an abandoned hotel and bar, while the other is a former gas station.
The new units are located in the 1500 and 1600 blocks of South Presa Street near Brackenridge High School.
“I know that we have a partnership moving this community forward, building on the great family businesses and families that have called this home for decades,” District 35 U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett said. “But (we) are adding something new that will really be a plus for the community and will set an example for the entire city.”
The developments are expected to be completed by the end of next year, and both will be certified by the organization Build San Antonio Green.
