lockmat Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 This is a pretty sweet design. Amegy's is nice but I'm jealous of this one. http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/forum/49-san-antonio/?do=add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strickn Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 For a city as rich and warm as San Antonio, this cold pinwheel is bland, forgettable, and unreflective (pun intended) of any cultural vibrancy but that of commercial architecture production professionals' firms, which are not where the vibrancy in the field of architecture takes place. This is a site that could have tied that side of downtown together, and instead, here's what hideously little they did with the plan (site) view: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strickn Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 This would have looked better than Amegy precisely because Amegy is experienced from a glance on a freeway. But for a double block in our most historic city after El Paso... just nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston19514 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I think it's kind of kitschy. Not a fan of Austin's Frost Bank tower either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose1100 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I'm glad it's going up on this side of town, should liven up the park a bit. Plus the St. Anthony's rooftop bar will have a spectacular view of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I’m here at the tower. Beautiful! Love the support columns! Parking garage is plain. Should have pulled a Hanover or Caydon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Photos from this week. Look at the columns with the glass facade! Love this, for the area. San Antonio is too historic. Needs more glass towers Arriving in San Antonio, I was on top of a parking garage within 45 minutes Old building vs new Early morning w/ lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intencity77 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 This is really a beautiful building. Love the slight angles and points atop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 After looking at Amegy in Uptown Houston this afternoon I agree that the Frost bldg has a better design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
