During Mayor Castro’s recent State of the City Address, he commented, “Great cities are defined by great downtowns, whether it's New York or San Francisco or London or Paris or any place around the world, and San Antonio's must be as well. Our goal is to create a vibrant 24/7 downtown, a place that's alive with residents and visitors…”

Downtown Alliance is excited to bring author of “Live First, Work Second,” Rebecca Ryan, together with Mayor Castro to address the issues San Antonio faces in not only making downtown “great,” but also making it a place that the next generation would choose to “live first.” Private companies, government, planners, developers, and anyone interested in the future of their business and the future of our city should benefit from this dynamic presentation.
