San Antonio's problem is 90% perception; it has a hard time drawing attention to itself from within its' own state. It has always been treated differently than Dallas or Houston, though historically it was the dominant city in the state until the early 20th century.

These days, most Texas homebuilders/developers seem to turn their attention to Austin first, when it comes to building some creative and interesting homes.

San Antonio deserve's a lot more. It has the type of history and pedigree that everyone on this board admires; an old-world (for us) city that has grown organically for almost 300 years. In terms of 'new' old-world charm, San Antonio should be in a league with New Orleans or Boston.
