What's brewing at the abandoned lone star brewery?

[@AlexDiaz-dd7bm]

My wife and I enjoy your videos 👍 San Antonio has a lot hidden gems

Wow! I worked at the brewery at the time they closed it down in September 1996. It’s been so sad seeing it just stand there and rot all these years. The employees there were more like family than co-workers and we still try to get together at least once a year. All this change is both encouraging and heartbreaking. My grandfather worked there as well as my father. I learned to swim in the Olympic sized pool there as a child. Thanks for posting and sharing this video. The memories are flooding back.

Correction, the developer is *Graystreet partners not "Grey"

I enjoyed many a Lone Star beer during the 70's and 80's. It was the National Beer of Texas.

Really enjoy your vids! There’s so much in SA’s past. On any given day we drive by many memories. Thank you for documenting and creating a video library of what is here today and may be gone tomorrow!

[@thesaexplorer]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I hope to not only capture forgotten cemeteries, but for gotten buildings as well!

That is so cool I left right there by Locust Street for about eight years and never knew now that I see the video of me and my kids look at it and I remember passing by didn't know what it was that is so cool

[@wiccantexan]

[@thesaexplorer]

Thank you!

[@fishingwithsam7526]

So cool brother

[@larrystautzenberger1753]

I’ve heard the same thing you stated in the video. The plans to develop it similar to the Pearl.

[@thesaexplorer]

Yup, all the info I got was from this article sanantonioreport.org/developers-on-track-to-raze-non-historic-buildings-at-lone-star-as-prelude-to-redevelopment/

[@fairyshades]

I really enjoy your content! I am a San Antonio native and love seeing videos about the history in SA.

[@thesaexplorer]

Glad to hear that! Makes me wanna make more content

[@ronaldgavlick732]

It will never be like the pearl,reason too rough of a neighborhood

[@thesaexplorer]

It's right by southtown/king william district...

[@panchovaldez8238]

Neither Lone Star or Pearl should have been closed. The greed of Anheuser Busch and Strogh is the real reason why these breweries were shut down!
