New life for South Texas Building

The historic South Texas Building, located at 603 Navarro, is being recycled.  Originally built in 1919, the twelve-story office building was renovated in 1981.  Since 2004, there have been a series of plans to convert the building into condos or hotel.  Finally, it looks as if the tired, old building will get some new life thanks to Baywood Hotels who purchased the building and plans to develop a Hilton Home 2 Suites hotel.
