An abandoned grain facility in Southtown has been converted into The Flats at Big Tex, a 336-unit apartment community near Blue Star and the Mission Reach.
With plans advancing to redevelop the long-vacant Lone Star Brewery at the same time other nearby infill development projects are progressing, the energy and verve that define Southtown appears to be migrating farther south along and near the San Antonio River.
The former Big Tex Grain Company, a long abandoned industrial site best known for its weathered silos that stood sentinel above the San Antonio River, will soon take on new life as The Flats at Big Tex, a 336-unit, apartment complex that winds along the riverbank below the Blue Star Arts Complex.
