Proud Texan. May we have the courage and foresight like Robert Hugman to take on bold new projects that define and refine our built landscapes in the greatest region of North America!

@@thesanantonioriverwalk9203 I'd love to move back and work for you. That city is in my heart, and will never leave.
Amazing! I was just there a week ago!
+metropolan Thank you! Tell your friends. It is included in numerous local schools as part of their Texas History curriculum. You may also like the new video we posted that provides lots of info on the river.
nice piece
Fantastic memories in 1968 while in the Air Force
Beautiful video. I have actual pictures of my grandparents, Jake and tiny tiner real name. I swear.. probably in the mid 30s or early '40s on the river walk. Grandma wrote on the back of all pictures. My grandfather was on the board of directors of the SA planning board as well as Saha
The most beautiful place in the USA! I will always wish I was tour boat pilot!
Me too. Perhaps in our retirement!
I'd pay them! LOL!
I had the pleasure of working as a boat captain down there in the early 1990's. Great atmosphere and positive energy.
Nice!
I wouldn’t say most beautiful place
I wished he had come to Houston
In 1992 I visited San Antonio with its romantic candle lights all over the place at the Riverwalk - a place you would really ask your girlfriend to marry. Now it obviously has `progressed` into Disneyland with flashlights all over. What a shame, San Antonio Conservation Society.
It use to be a drainage, ditch.
Low pressure system Not high pressure system
That not no river its a creak🚰
Its a river you asshole! Its a stream that comes out of the earth by Brackenridge park and flows all the way to the Gulf of Mexico.
No, it's pretty quiet, actually...
You are right. And it was not built by this man as the fak3 history promote. It was there prior to 18 century. It's tartarian construction. ( Tartarian civilization).
@meggtokyodelicious It went from a glorified drainage ditch into the beautiful attraction it is today because of Texans in the 20th Century.

Been there done that 🙄 nothing special and it’s nasty 🤢........ huge disappointment. But hey if that’s your thing I mean great for you. Personally it’s a bit boring, more walking than anything else.
You sound sour, angry, disappointed with life and your self.
Walking is the point. It's the river WALK!
