San Antonio Deco District
I hate freeways so I take all the side roads. I frequently go through the "Deco District" on Fredericksburg Road. Let me just say it's no South Beach. There's a police station, a uniforms store and, of course, an HEB!
I think the HEB is probably the most art deco of all the buildings in this block. Well, at least the exterior of the store.
Unfortunately, the inside of the HEB looks like a run-down version of other HEBs. This area has lots of potential and someone in San Antonio with some artistic creativity should try to revive it and make it a true art deco destination.
