Speckled with Texas Historical Markers, this region has supported military operations since construction of the Quadrangle began in 1876. This historic neighborhood, where land lots sell for $12-20 per square foot, is an investment oasis for relocating families. For those pursuing higher education,
San Antonio College and St. Philips College are in close proximity. Here, you’ll be a part of all the action too. The AT&T Center, home of the San Antonio Spurs, is only 10 minutes away and a short trip up I-35 will lead you into the heart of downtown San Antonio. |

You can enjoy an afternoon in the nearby scenic Japanese Tea Gardens before grabbing a burger at the 50s-themed restaurant, Cheesy Jane’s. Grocery shopping is even more exciting here. At Central Market – one of the “freshest” markets in the nation – indulge your foodie-side with organic produce and Texas-raised beef, among its many selections.
