The San Antonio City Council recently approved the sale of a vacant 10-acre tract at 301 Spriggsdale (near the corner of E. Commerce St.) to the George Gervin Youth Center for the development of a $63 million mixed-use project called Echo East.  The parcel is adjacent to 9.1 acres owned by the youth center. 

It will include 500 residential units and 25,000 sf of retail space. Echo East would be one of the largest East Side construction projects since the AT&T Center opened in 2002. The council voted to sell the land for $430,000. It awarded a $450,000 economic development grant to pay for the land and closing costs.
