Now that San Antonio has won the Word Heritage Site designation for its missions, it's time for the next step: maximizing and marketing that designation to capitalize on the traveler looking for historic destinations, a noted historian told civic leaders and others at the Downtown Alliance's Urban Renaissance Luncheon at the Hyatt Regency on Wednesday.
“We have some work to do to make sure that these iconic treasures are pristine and engaging,” said John Nau III, owner of the nation’s largest distributor of Anheuser-Busch beverages, chairman of the Texas Historical Commission, former chairman of President George W. Bush’s Advisory Council on Historic Preservation and current member of the board of directors of the National Park Foundation.
