While in the Southtown area of San Antonio for a stop on the Herb Society Garden Tour last week, we took a little time to walk the block to check out neighboring houses and front gardens. Southtown is a neighborhood of artists studios, local restaurants, and contemporary shops which are revitalizing the area. It's very close to the popular King William Historic District and is a less expensive option for those who choose to live in town or establish a new business.
Next door on the west side of the "Urban Chic" house shown on tour is this charming cottage with a beautiful coral vine blooming along the fence and a contemporary kinetic sculpture in the yard.
