Alamo Parkway presentation of shops

Alamo Parkway, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By Kaw on Jan 13, 2009
3.5/5
This is a new growing area. I feel that they should have created the atmosphere of Alamo Pwy similar to the Rim. The Rim has an outstanding entrance way and a mix of great visual buildings. There is some plain buildings too but The Rim has just enough class to... Full review

It's been fixed... Can you fix the rest of it?

Wurzbach Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By shygirl91227 on Jun 19, 2008
4/5
Wurzbach stretches from Ingram all the way to what becomes Wurzbach Parkway. The parts that I usually drive though stretch from I-10 to what becomes Ingram. Between Bandera Road and Babcock there were several pot holes. Luckily most of the stretch has been... Full review

1604 to downtown

Culebra Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By shygirl91227 on Jun 19, 2008
3/5
This road varies as you drive it from beginning to end. At one end you have very new homes and shopping centers being built. On the other end you have several businesses closing, pot holes, and crime. It’s amazing how driving down one street you can see how... Full review

Nice homes, great shopping, but growing fast traffic-wise

Stone Oak Parkway, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
4/5
I am on Stone Oak Parkway often because that is where my home building company builds most of our homes. The homes there are all very nice, the shopping and medical care are excellent (a Baptist Hospital branch is actually on Stone Oak Parkway), and the street... Full review

Not the greatest street ever

Harry Wurzbach Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
2/5
Harry Wurzbach is a conglomeration of road construction, heavy traffic, and very, very shady commercial and residential districts. I try to avoid it as often as possible – generally the only reason I travel on Harry Wurzbach is to get quickly from Terrell Hill... Full review

Nice homes, great amenities

Burr Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
4/5
Burr Road exists on the Southern edge of Terrell Hills, a “subcity” of San Antonio Texas. On the North side of Burr you can find nice middle-upper-class living with pretty homes. Most of the South side is taken up by the San Antonio Country Club, which is gorg... Full review

A street with a little bit of everything

N New Braunfels, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
3/5
North New Braunfels spans from Highway 410 (to the North) to Fort Sam Houston (to the South), passing through Alamo Heights and Terrell Hills. The street has a little bit of everything, from middle-class and upper-class living to nice restaurants and grocery s... Full review

Quiet upper-class living

Eldon Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
4/5
Eldon Road is one of the two main thoroughfares of the San Antonio “subcity” of Terrell Hills. Because the street is composed entirely of upper-class housing, and set in a small city full of upper-class homes, the street is very easy on the eyes, very easy on... Full review

A little bit of everything, and a lot of traffic

Blanco Road, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
3/5
Blanco Road is one of the longest roads in San Antonio. Some parts of it are less than pleasant (mostly to the South), with low-rent commercial districts and even lower-rent housing, although as you go further North, the appearance and climate gets better. The... Full review

Transcending two of San Antonio's finest "subcities"

Grandview Place, San Antonio, Texas, United States
By cwschimpff on Jun 18, 2008
4.5/5
Grandview Place runs East to West, starting on Broadway Street in Alamo Heights to the East and dead-ending just past Eldon Road in Terrell Hills to the West. The road itself is not in the greatest condition, but it’s unlikely that you’ll damage a wheel or you... Full review
