Cattleman’s Square, the historic neighborhood West of downtown San Antonio, is entering a moment of transformation. Led by San Antonio Housing Trust, Project DC is an effort to create a shared, community-driven vision for a district that is safe, welcoming, and vibrant for all. Several parallel processes will work together at different scales to honor the neighborhood’s history, support residents and unhoused neighbors, and guide equitable development for the future.


Three Parallel Efforts, One Shared Vision

Cattleman’s Square is undergoing a community-centered transformation to ensure its future is rooted in equity, cultural vitality, and the well-being of all who live, work, and visit the district. Project DC, the Homeless Response Action Plan, and Street Outreach are moving forward together as coordinated planning and support efforts. While each focuses on different timelines and needs, they collectively build a foundation for immediate care, medium-term system improvements, and long-term neighborhood reinvestment.

It's a great idea however you need to remove the Jail from that area.

It was great in the 80’s and 90’s. Once uptown got developed, this area fell out of favor. It needs refreshing and event planning.

Restore Cattleman’s Square as a safe, active transit corridor with local vendors, connecting downtown and the West Side through daily use.
