The proposed name, the 'Roberto Rodriguez Westside Creeks Ecosystem,' looks to honor the project's historic Westside advocate.
Alazán Creek flows past the Lincoln Heights Courts on San Antonio’s West Side. It is one of four creeks set to be restored to its natural state starting next summer.The City of San Antonio is seeking public feedback on a proposed name for the Westside Creeks Restoration Project as the two-decades-in-the-making venture nears a significant design milestone.
“… So we thought it would be fitting to designate the four Westside creeks as the ‘Roberto Rodriguez Westside Creeks Ecosystem,’ and that name would last into perpetuity,” he said. While the ecosystem of creeks is proposed to be renamed, the San Pedro, Apache, Alazán and Martínez creeks will retain their individual names, the city noted in a press release about the public hearing.
Since then, however, rising construction costs and inflation have driven the estimated cost up to $200 million, according to the Army Corps of Engineers’ latest estimates.
