More than two years after the project's start, construction crews are laying asphalt on North St. Mary's Street. Business owners say they're eager to see the end result but have suffered since the project's start.
– Construction crews are working overnight to finish paving the St. Mary’s Strip this week.“We’re real close,” said Rod Sanchez, San Antonio assistant city manager. “This is going to be a beautiful street.”
Daniel Garcia, the owner of 621 Screen Printing, said the end goal of this project is exciting, but how long it’s taken to finish it has stripped some of those feelings. The North St. Mary’s Strip project started on March 15, 2021. The original contractual end date was Oct. 5, 2022. That date got revised to this summer, according to Public Works.Garcia opened his print shop 25 years ago. He said the longevity of his business helped him get through the lack of street traffic with all of the construction. But he said others weren’t so lucky.The city has held weekly meetings on Thursday afternoons at St.
Sanchez said he’s proud of the project and how crews have navigated old infrastructure, weather delays and expanded plans.With an end in sight, businesses like Garcia’s are now looking to rebuild the street traffic lost by years of construction.
