Texas Star Trail Icon
Paseo del Alamo, 1981
Stacks Image 2198
Low, street-level walls within the plaza represent the location of the Alamo compound’s west wall. Archaeological remains of the original walls are visible through the glass-top enclosure. The water feature incorporates representative elements of the original Spanish acequia irrigation system, which carried water from the San Antonio River to outlying fields for irrigation. The mosaic mural downstairs below Losoya Street depicts many San Antonio landmarks as envisioned by artist Tom Stell. A statue of Hispanic Texan Toribio Losoya, “An Unsung Hero of the Alamo,” stands at the top of the stairs. Losoya Street is named for him.
