Police are following leads to the sudden disappearance of all the water on San Antonio's Riverwalk early last week. Sources have confirmed that no ransom note has been found and SAPD is stumped at the motivation for stealing the river. The situation is particularly embarrassing following the sam
If you frequently visit or convene on the other great cities in the country, you'll be familiar with the constant problem of finding things to do, hotels to book, restaurants to eat at, and learning about local customs. To make your next trip to San Antonio as simple as possible, we've compiled a li
The world famous San Antonio Riverwalk, with its unique collection of tourist attractions and businesses, has been the last place in the country to feel the current recession. While crime in Austin has soared and industry has closed around Dallas and Houston, the Riverwalk has continued to provide g
The world-famous San Antonio Riverwalk, beloved by visitors globally and voted #1 in a recent VTR poll for responsible fun with alcoholic beverages, is known for its serenity, beauty and natural serene beauty.
But once a year, the Riverwalk likes to let its hair down, shampoo throughly with a a CVS all-in-one, and celebrate a Halloween mohawk by scaring visitors in some good ol' fashioned demented horror.
The Halloween Riverwalk, sponsored by the smooth taste of Coroner Light, isn't for the fa
Few visitors realize during their visit to the world-famous San Antonio Riverwalk, that the Riverwalk is not in its original position, and this September marks the 20th anniversary of the Riverwalk Relocation Project. The moving of the Riverwalk, complete with 57 buildings and an estimated 48 million gallons of water, was managed by downtown architects RPG Projects Inc, and was described in Architectural Digest as "the Noah's Ark" of relocations.
The project started after disagreements followin
Chief Assistant Editor, Maria Frimble, presents her top picks for the Riverwalk on Labor Day.
I think the Riverwalk offers so much for friends and family to do on Labor Day. It's a bounteous gift, much like the way that Neptune - the God of the sea - provided fishes for the oceans, that enables us to reflect on how much the Riverwalk really provides for its guests and visitors. It's fair to say that if the Romans or Greeks had survived to present day, they would have believed in a Riverwalk Go
Mark Twain famously described the San Antonio Riverwalk as one of the country's "four unique cities", in which he ranked the Riverwalk as number one and excluded neighboring towns such as Austin. While Mr Twain was keenly able to navigate around the river, many visitors have been asking for an Official Map to help them follow the footsteps of the country's most famous author.
With over 1500 businesses and attractions on the Riverwalk, it can be almost overwhelming for visitors and tourists, s
The Riverwalk's Poet Laureate and part-time freelance writer for the San Antonio Informer, Maria Frimble, sings the praises of the Riverwalk's entrepreneurial elite on paper using words.
The world-famous San Antonio with its unique Riverwalk that brings joy to millions, has always attracted talent. For this coming Labor Day weekend, Visit The Riverwalk would like to salute the Riverwalk's workers that strive to make it a cultural and economic powerhouse, and continue to hoist it up the Texan

As tales of the Riverwalk go, one of the most bizarre in recent years has been the story of the Riverwalk Vampire. After a series of gruesome murders in the 1990s, where victims were dragged off the Riverwalk and blood-sucked, the San Antonio Police Department created an special task force to catch the attacker. As officers closed in on the suspect, the trail went cold unti
The world-famous San Antonio Riverwalk, renowned for its bounty of quality restaurants, bars and 'edu-tainment', released some staggering news at the beginning of this week. On Monday, traditionally the first day of the week, Riverwalk workers were walking to their workplaces when the news broke. In a somber day as dark as the Great Riverwalk Flood in 1922, one employee said she felt "betrayed and angry" at the Riverwalk's management.
Although the Riverwalk is mainly funded by the 50% Riverboat
Following the success of the hit series Beverly Hills 90210, Fox has decided to ressurect the show and place it in most dynamic and fastest growing city in the country (outside of Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta and Boerne), San Antonio.
Fox has long been an important part of community, especially in recent times when socialists have taken over the country, and the city watches Fox News like a moth circling a light, patiently waiting for confirmation that President
The historic Aztec Theater on the world-famous San Antonio Riverwalk has had a checkered history of opening, closing, construction, reconstruction and finally reopening. Like a terminal but wealthy patient whose family expect the worst when life support is turned off, and yet mysteriously surviving and keeping its related vultures at bay from pecking its eyes out one more time, the Aztec has limped from the ashes in its latest reincarnation.
After two years as a large-format theater that attr
Grand Theft Auto, the record-breaking series of computer games that has literally pepper-sprayed the faces of The Sims, has finally come home for a long-overdue San Antonio edition. Inspired by a real-life incident in San Antonio's West Side, game creator Chris Moonbat has gone from living with his parents to being the only person in Texas who can afford the $600,000 penthouse apartments atop the relatively new Hyatt Hotels.
Moonbat, 26, created much of the game's action after an inciden
