The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified Walker Ranch Park (indicated by red square below) as an opportunity for a public art sculpture project. This project is part of the 2022 Bond Program. The Department of Arts & Culture is at the beginning stages of this public art project. We need your input on important design features of the artwork you’d like to see at Walker Ranch Park. Walker Ranch Park has long been a site of historical significance for this region and is part of a larger archaeologically significant site. It was a favored campsite revisited over thousands of years by hunting and gathering peoples for its crucial resources such as water, plants, animals, and stone materials. It is believed this area also served as a supply ranch for Mission San Antonio de Valero, during the Spanish Colonial period. The land continued to be used as farm and ranch lands through the 19th century. It became known as Walker Ranch in 1905, after owner Ganahl Walker, Sr. The Walker family operated the ranch until 1972. In 1975, Walker Ranch was added to the National Register of Historical Places. Through the City of San Antonio, the San Antonio River Authority, and many private donations, the park was formed and dedicated on May 15, 1999.   El Departamento de Arte y Cultura de la Ciudad de San Antonio ha identificado el Walker Ranch Park (señalado por el recuadro rojo a continuación) como una oportunidad para un proyecto de escultura de arte público. Este proyecto es parte del Programa de Bonos de 2022. El Departamento de Arte y Cultura se encuentra en las etapas iniciales de este proyecto de arte público. Necesitamos su aporte sobre las características de diseño destacadas de la obra de arte que le gustaría ver en Walker Ranch Park. Walker Ranch Park ha sido durante mucho tiempo un sitio de importancia histórica para esta región y es parte de un sitio de importancia arqueológica de mayor envergadura. Fue uno de los campamentos predilectos durante miles de años por los pueblos cazadores y recolectores por sus recursos esenciales como el agua, las plantas, los animales y los materiales pétreos. Se cree que esta área también sirvió como rancho de suministros para la Misión San Antonio de Valero durante el período colonial español. El suelo continuó utilizándose como suelos agrícolas y ganaderos durante el siglo XIX. Se lo llamó Walker Ranch en 1905, en honor al propietario Ganahl Walker, Sr. La familia Walker gestionó el rancho hasta 1972. En 1975, Walker Ranch se añadió al Registro Nacional de Sitios Históricos. A través de la Ciudad de San Antonio, San Antonio River Authority y muchas donaciones privadas, el parque se construyó y se inauguró el 15 de mayo de 1999. Survey open date: November 15, 2023 Survey close date: December 17, 2023 Contact information: Renee Talamantez, Public Art Project Manager, Department of Arts & Culture  [email protected]

Project Overview   Since September, the Brackenridge Park Stakeholder Advisory Committee has met to shape a new effort by the City of San Antonio to develop a Reconciled Plan and Project Inventory for Brackenridge Park.    What is the Reconciled Plan?    In May 2023, City Council approved funding from the Midtown TIRZ to support a new planning tool for Brackenridge Park. Specifically, the effort will consider the following:  Brackenridge Park Masterplan (2017)  Brackenridge Park Cultural Landscape Plan (2021)  Midtown Regional Center Plan (2019)    The result will be a Reconciled Plan and Project Inventory for Brackenridge Park. This new tool will not replace the previous plans. Instead, it will consolidate their goals and objectives and provide an inventory of projects that have been evaluated under new, objective criteria and recommended for prioritization. Stakeholders will agree on evaluation criteria to inform the project inventory.    The Stakeholder Advisory Committee has developed draft language which will be used to guide discussions surrounding the plan and inform project prioritization including:    Guiding Principles (Including Equity and Accessibility) Evaluation Criteria / Project Considerations      We Want to Hear From You!    The next important step in this community-driven process is public input. Beginning in January, the consultant team and Office of Historic Preservation will launch a comprehensive public input campaign. The campaign which will include multiple Community Workshops and a month-long survey (see individual details below.) The public will also be asked to review and recommend additional guiding principles and evaluation criteria for consideration by the Stakeholder Advisory Committee.    How to Participate:   Please join us for an upcoming Community Workshop (individual event details below)   Monday, January 8, 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm (arrival / reception at 5:15 pm)  Project Introduction Collaborative Work SessionsSurvey Launch    Tuesday, January 30, 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm (times may be adjusted depending on participation on January 8)  Survey Results Refinement of Evaluation Criteria Additional Input  *Both workshops will take place at the Tri-Point event center located at 3233 N St. Mary's Street.     Help inform this project by taking the survey:    (Survey link and details will be available after January 8)

Parque Milam: Proyecto de arte público

The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified Milam Park (500 West Commerce St.) as an opportunity for a public art project. The artwork will be a mural located on the back of the seating wall facing North Santa Rosa Street (see map below). Currently in the beginning stages of the public art process, we need your input on what theme you’d like to see explored in the artwork design. Beneath the surface of what is known today as Milam Park and the Children’s Hospital of San Antonio, ancestors of some of the earliest communities in San Antonio are interred. These grounds were once the second Campo Santo of San Fernando Church, an early Catholic Cemetery, and an early city cemetery. The people interred here came from a variety of social, economic, and ethnic backgrounds—from Native Americans to the city’s first soldiers and settlers, to Canary Islanders and participants from various military engagements.  Despite their diverse origins, these residents of San Antonio all endured the harsh realities of life as a frontier community. These people and their descendants influenced the development of the city and continue to contribute and serve the community in many ways. Those buried at Milam Park are a reminder of the collective effort that formed the very heart and foundation of the City of San Antonio. El Departamento de Arte y Cultura de la Ciudad de San Antonio ha identificado a Milam Park (500 W. Commerce St.) como una oportunidad para un proyecto de arte público. La obra será un mural situado en la parte posterior de la pared de asientos frente a North Santa Rosa (ver mapa a continuación). La meta de la obra de arte es homenajear a las comunidades que descansan en Milam Park. Actualmente, en las etapas iniciales del proceso de arte público, necesitamos su aporte sobre qué tema le gustaría ver explorado en el diseño de la obra de arte. Bajo la superficie de lo que hoy se conoce como Milam Park y Children's Hospital of San Antonio, están sepultados los antepasados de algunas de las primeras comunidades de San Antonio. Estos terrenos fueron en su día el segundo Campo Santo de la Iglesia San Fernando, uno de los primeros Cementerios Católicos y uno de los primeros cementerios de la ciudad. Las personas sepultadas aquí provenían de una variedad de orígenes sociales, económicos y étnicos, desde nativos americanos hasta los primeros soldados y colonos de la ciudad, pasando por los canarios y participantes de diversos enfrentamientos militares. A pesar de sus diversos orígenes, todos estos residentes de San Antonio soportaron las duras realidades de la vida como comunidad fronteriza. Estas personas y sus descendientes influyeron en el desarrollo de la ciudad y continúan contribuyendo y sirviendo a la comunidad de muchas maneras. Aquellos sepultados en Milam Park son un recordatorio del esfuerzo colectivo que formó el corazón y los cimientos de la Ciudad de San Antonio.   Point of Contact: Bianca Alvarez, Public Art Project Manager, [email protected] Survey Open: March 2, 2023 Survey Close: April 30, 2023

  The Office of Historic Preservation wants to hear from you! Submit your feedback on the draft deconstruction ordinance, which aims to recapture building materials from the waste stream and redirect them back into our communities for reuse. This survey is intended for all residents of San Antonio, including people who do not have access to the internet. If you need help completing the survey, please ask someone else to assist you or contact "311" at 210-207-6000 for assistance. Thank you!  What is deconstruction?  Sometimes called "construction in reverse" or "unbuilding," deconstruction removes a building through selective disassembly of building components like framing, siding, flooring, doors, fixtures, cabinetry, and lighting to maximize the opportunity for reuse.    Ordinance overview  Since 2018, the Office of Historic Preservation has worked with community stakeholders, peer cities, and the Deconstruction Advisory Committee (DAC) to develop a deconstruction ordinance. The ordinance would require deconstruction and material salvage for older small-scale housing stock. The ordinance does not affect if a building comes down, but rather how a building comes down after it is approved for full removal.     The ordinance is designed to meet or contribute to the following goals:     • Reduce construction and demolition waste.     • Mitigate the airborne pollution associated with building removal.     • Increase the availability of reclaimed and excess building materials for local reuse.     • Improve equity of building material access, including for use in affordable housing preservation and production.     • Encourage neighborhood continuity and the retention of historic building materials within the communities from which they originated.     • Develop and sustain a local workforce in construction, heritage trades, and deconstruction.    Ordinance details    Learn more about the deconstruction ordinance     Read the code language    Read the administrative rules  ¡La Oficina de Preservación Histórica quiere saber de usted! Envíe sus comentarios sobre el borrador de la ordenanza de deconstrucción, cuyo objetivo es recuperar los materiales de construcción del flujo de desechos y redirigirlos a nuestras comunidades para su reutilización. Esta encuesta está destinada a todos los residentes de San Antonio, incluyendo las personas que no tienen acceso a Internet. Si necesita ayuda para completar la encuesta, por favor, solicítela a otra persona o comuníquese con el "311" al 210-207-6000 para obtener ayuda. ¡Gracias!   ¿Qué es la deconstrucción?    A veces llamada "construcción al revés" o "desconstrucción", la deconstrucción elimina un edificio mediante el desmontaje selectivo de los componentes del edificio, como marcos, revestimientos, pisos, puertas, accesorios, gabinetes e iluminación para maximizar la oportunidad de reutilización.    Descripción general de la ordenanza    Desde 2018, la Oficina de Preservación Histórica ha trabajado con partes interesadas de la comunidad, ciudades pares y el Comité Asesor de Deconstrucción (DAC) para desarrollar una ordenanza de deconstrucción. La ordenanza requeriría la deconstrucción y el rescate de materiales para las viviendas más antiguas a pequeña escala. La ordenanza no afecta si un edificio se derrumba, sino cómo se derrumba un edificio después de que se aprueba su remoción total.    La ordenanza está diseñada para cumplir o contribuir a los siguientes objetivos:     • Reducir los residuos de construcción y demolición.     • Mitigar la contaminación del aire asociada con la remoción de edificios.     • Aumentar la disponibilidad de materiales de construcción recuperados y en exceso para su reutilización local.     • Mejorar la equidad en el acceso a los materiales de construcción, incluso para su uso en la conservación y producción de viviendas asequibles.     • Alentar la continuidad del vecindario y la retención de materiales de construcción históricos dentro de las comunidades de donde se originaron.     • Desarrollar y mantener una fuerza laboral local en construcción, oficios patrimoniales y deconstrucción.    Detalles de la ordenanza    Obtenga más información sobre la ordenanza de deconstrucción   Leer el lenguaje de código   Leer las normas administrativas   Department / Departamento: Office of Historic Preservation Point of Contact / Datos de contacto: Stephanie Phillips Email / Correo electrónico: [email protected] Survey Open Date / Fecha de Apertura: August 8, 2022 Survey Close Date / Fecha de Cierre: August 31, 2022

The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified the heart of Zona Cultural as an opportunity for a public art project. The project has three locations near the Commerce and Santa Rosa intersection. You can view the locations identified by the red dots in the map below. One is at the north median on Santa Rosa and Commerce. The other two locations are about 100 feet east of that intersection on Commerce Street. All three present opportunities for three-dimensional art, such as sculptures. Currently in the beginning stages of the public art process, we need your input on what theme you’d like to see explored in the artwork’s design. Zona Cultural encompasses 44 contiguous blocks of many historic locations, including Main Plaza, Plaza de Armas, Market Square, Alameda Theater, San Fernando Cathedral, San Pedro Creek. A crossroads of culture, commerce, and community; this area celebrates the story of San Antonio—from presidio to bustling global city—through music, food, culture, and the arts. El Departamento de Arte y Cultura de la Ciudad de San Antonio ha identificado el corazón de Zona Cultural como un lugar donde es posible hacer un proyecto de Art Público. El proyecto incluye tres esculturas que serán instaladas cerca de la intersección de las calles Commerce y Santa Rosa. Los círculos rojos en el mapa indican dónde se instalarán estas esculturas. Una será instalada en el camellón en la intersección de Santa Rosa y Commerce. Las otras dos estarán aproximadamente 100 pies al este de esta intersección en la calle Commerce. Estas tres oportunidades presentan la oportunidad de hacer un proyecto tridimensional, como lo son las esculturas. Ahora nos encontramos en el inicio de este proyecto y necesitamos su opinión sobre qué tema le gustaría ver representado en el diseño del arte. El área denominada como Zona Cultural abarca 44 cuadras continuas con muchos lugares históricos, incluyendo La Plaza Principal de San Antonio, Plaza de Armas, Plaza del Mercado, Teatro Alameda, Catedral de San Fernando, y Arroyo San Pedro. Zona Cultural cuenta con una mezcla de cultura, comercio y comunidad; esta área celebra la historia de San Antonio, desde la época del presidio hasta la bulliciosa ciudad global que es hoy, a través de la música, la comida, la cultura y las artes.   Point of Contact: Bianca Alvarez, Public Art Project Manager Email: [email protected]

The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified Fire Station #24 Replacement as an opportunity for a public art project. The artwork will be a relief mural, meaning that there would be some three-dimensional elements that project from the brick wall facing Austin Highway. Currently in the beginning stages of the public art process, we need your input on what theme you’d like to see explored in the artwork design. Founded in 1891, the San Antonio Fire Department (SAFD) has been protecting the Alamo City for over 130 years. Today, SAFD has over 1,000 uniformed officers across 51 fire stations who respond to fire, rescue, and medical first response service requests. Located in City Council District 10, the original Fire Station 24 was built in 1956. Fire Station #24 Replacement will be located in City Council District 2, while serving both districts. El Departamento de Arte y Cultura de la Ciudad de San Antonio ha identificado el Reemplazo de la Estación de Bomberos #24 como una oportunidad para un proyecto de arte público. La obra de arte será un mural en relieve, lo que significa que habrá algunos elementos tridimensionales que se proyectan desde la pared de ladrillos frente a Austin Highway. Actualmente, en las etapas iniciales del proceso de arte público, necesitamos su opinión sobre qué tema le gustaría ver explorado en el diseño de la obra de arte. Fundado en 1891, el Departamento de Bomberos de San Antonio (SAFD) ha estado protegiendo la Ciudad Alamo durante más de 130 años. Hoy, SAFD tiene más de 1,000 oficiales uniformados en 51 estaciones de bomberos que responden a las solicitudes de servicios de primeros auxilios, de rescate y de bomberos.

Terminal A del Aeropuerto Internacional de San Antonio: Proyecto de arte público

The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified the San Antonio International Airport’s Terminal A baggage claim area (identified in the map below) as an opportunity...

The City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture has identified the San Antonio International Airport’s Terminal A baggage claim area (identified in the map below) as an opportunity for a public art project. Currently in the beginning stages of the public art process, we need your input on what theme you’d like to see explored in the artwork design. Founded in 1941, the site of the San Antonio International Airport was first used as a training base during WWII for the United States Army Air Forces. Today, the Airport is a civilian site and serves 8-10 million travelers every year. Terminal A is the larger of the airport’s two terminals and is the hub for all international travel and customs operations. Existing artwork at the airport include themes of San Antonio history, vintage travel advertisements, as well as a variety of rotating exhibitions. Terminal A’s exit sees almost 70% of airport visitation. Domestic travelers disembarking aircraft will come down the escalator or staircase, and out past the information desk shown in these images. International travelers will exit customs through doors across from the information desk. The orange overlays indicate opportunities for two dimensional artworks. El Departamento de Arte y Cultura de la Ciudad de San Antonio ha identificado el área de reclamo de equipaje de la Terminal A del Aeropuerto Internacional de San Antonio (identificado en el mapa a continuación) como una oportunidad para un proyecto de arte público. Actualmente, en las etapas iniciales del proceso de arte público, necesitamos su opinión sobre qué tema le gustaría ver explorado en el diseño de la obra de arte. Fundado en 1941, el sitio del Aeropuerto Internacional de San Antonio se utilizó por primera vez como base de entrenamiento durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial para las Fuerzas Aéreas del Ejército de los Estados Unidos. Hoy, el aeropuerto es un sitio civil y atiende a entre 8 y 10 millones de viajeros cada año. La Terminal A es la más grande de las dos terminales del aeropuerto y es el centro de todas las operaciones aduaneras y de viajes internacionales. Las obras de arte existentes en el aeropuerto incluyen temas de la historia de San Antonio, anuncios de viajes antiguos, así como una variedad de exhibiciones rotativas. La salida de la Terminal A recibe casi el 70 % de las visitas al aeropuerto. Los viajeros nacionales que desembarcan de un avión bajarán por las escaleras mecánicas o escaleras y pasarán por el mostrador de información que se muestra en estas imágenes. Los viajeros internacionales saldrán de la aduana por las puertas frente al mostrador de información. Las superposiciones naranjas indican oportunidades para obras de arte bidimensionales.

Do you know of important sites, events, and people related to African-American Culture in San Antonio? We want to hear from you! The Office of Historic Preservation is creating an African American Cultural Context Statement. Cultural Context Statements are used by historic preservationists to identify important places, events, and forms of intangible heritage such as music, songs, dances, spirituality, festivals, even parade routes. Cultural Context Statements also help make decisions about preserving cultural heritage. This work can result in historic designations, historic markers, street naming, exhibitions, and heritage trails such as Civil Rights Trails. Please tell what history, stories, and people, places, and events that you think should be included in the African American Cultural Context Statement, by answering a few questions below. Include any relevant photos you might have and let us know if we can follow-up with you for more information or to collect an oral history.  We will be accepting comments through August 15. We will post a draft statement for public review in August.  Other ways to Participate Call 311E-mail: [email protected] your comments at any San Antonio Public LibraryWrite to the Office of Historic Preservation at P.O.

La Oficina de Preservación Histórica está elaborando una Declaración de Contexto Cultural Afroamericano. Las declaraciones de contexto cultural son utilizadas por conservacionistas históricos para ayudar a identificar lugares importantes, eventos y formas de patrimonio intangible como música, canciones, bailes, espiritualidad, festivales e incluso rutas de desfiles. Las declaraciones de contexto cultural también ayudan a tomar decisiones sobre la preservación del patrimonio cultural. Este trabajo puede resultar en designaciones históricas, marcadores históricos, nombramiento de calles, exhibiciones y senderos patrimoniales como senderos o trechos de derechos civiles.
