The Brooks Development Authority has taken control of a 243-acre stretch of San Antonio's South Side, and it's preparing the land to compete for a major employer. The agency is calling the effort Project Oso, according to KSAT 12, and the goal is straightforward: get the property ready so it can compete for a major employer looking to plant roots in the city.
Brooks is preparing the property so it can compete for a major employer opportunity, according to KSAT. The site sits about 1.7 miles south of the Brooks campus, and the project is a partnership involving Brooks, Bexar County and the San Antonio River Authority. No major tenant has been announced yet, and Brooks says it will take three to five years for the site to become shovel-ready for an employer to build on.
