News Notes
Development
  • Residents will officially begin moving into San Antonio’s first permanent supportive housing complex, this week. Towne Twin Village (which replaced the old Towne Twin Drive-In movie theatre) will house over 200 senior citizens who have been chronically homeless. (SA Report)
Eat
  • It’s the end of an era. Mr. Juicy removed chicken fried steak from its menu Thursday, April 14. Chef-owner Andrew Weissman said there was too much prep work, and too little interest to keep the item on the menu — for now. (MySA)
Coming Soon
  • Calling all pancake lovers. Magnolia Pancake Haus will move to a new space in June 2023. After spending 17 years in their Embassy Oaks location, they they’re headed to 2070 NE Loop 1604 in the Gold Canyon neighborhood. Stay up to date about the new restaurant developments on their Instagram.
Announced
  • The historic Hays Street Bridge is getting a park. City Council approved of the $2.5 million budget earlier this month — the Berkley V. and Vincent M. Dawson Park will include a skate park, historical timeline, a pavilion, and more. Construction has started, and it’s set to open December 2023. (SA Report)
Biz
  • Port San Antonio is getting its first office tower. Approved by its board of directors late last week, this tower will be the first of its kind on campus. The building will feature over 300,000 sqft of office space, be 12 to 15 stories tall, have multiple amenities, and a parking garage. (SA Report)
Finance
  • Now may be a good time to transfer your balance. This leading balance transfer card offers 0% intro APR for 21 months and no annual fee. Eliminating interest payments? A no-brainer.*
Drink
  • Ditch the hangover without having to ditch your favorite cocktail with Ritual Zero Proof Spirits. The award-winning brand makes non-alcoholic rum, tequila, gin, and whiskey so you can enjoy the ritual of having a drink without feeling icky the following day. Psst — check out Ritual’s collection of cocktail recipes.
Travel
  • What trip would be worth leaving San Antonio? For City Editor Adriana, it’s New Zealand — to hike where “The Lord of the Rings” was filmed. Sign up for Going to get notified when flight prices drop so you can book your dream trip and feel great about it. Join for free.
Celebrate
  • We want to wish a happy birthday to our teammate Carolyn, 6AM City Sales Executive. Happy birthday, Carolyn!
Correction
  • Oops… Our Friday newsletter stated that the historic Kusch House was built in 1968, but it was actually 1965. Thank you to reader Armand for pointing this out to us and we promise to ask for an extra shot in our coffee next time.

From the editor
My favorite quick brunch spot has to be Kulture Kafe. It’s a food truck in Southtown that serves the best chilaquiles I’ve ever had, but don’t tell my mom that. Did I mention it’s also Latina owned and operated?

Missed Friday’s newsletter? Hemisfair’s Kusch House to be renovated into Chinese restaurant.
