Off the compliance topic, when you face the Alamo and look left there is a long and towering building with a large Texas flag on the front steeple. What is that building?

I'll be there all next week. If no one knows, I'll drive down and check for you.

Appreciate it. I'm sure someone will know. I have it in a recent picture I took, and I want to identify it in my database.

Andy, is it the Tower of the Americas?
It's been a couple of years since I was last in San Antonio but we did eat at the top of the tower. It is by the convention center.

I'm not talking about the "needle" which is the Tower of Americas, as I understand it. This is one that looks like an old gothic church except that it is many stories high. This building.

Wisteria Lane..
Could it be the U. S. Post Office/Federal Courthouse?

I know the federal courthouse is near there, but I didn't think this was it. Since you end with a "?", I suppose you are guessing. Surely we have a SA banker here in the threads???

Many people throughout history have been baffled by that edifice.

It's the Medical Arts building:

Hi Andy,

I believe the picture is that of the Emily Morgan Hotel.

Hmm, that's correct. Apparently, I had the old name for the joint when I said it was the Medical Arts building.
