East Side San Antonio
Would like to get people familiar with the area's take on properties east of N New Braunfels Ave on the East side of San Antonio. Right now it is a rough area. With all the activity in Dignowity I was wondering if it is migrating east and at what pace?
I am asking because I have an opportunity to pick up a house in this area for what I think is a good price.

@Mike Garland I'm a believer in the east side, I think it has tons of potential, but be weary of the announced projects. Lone Star is at a halt now and there are other small developments announced a few years ago that haven't gone through.
The Pearl is a beautifully executed mixed use development done by a billionaire. I think some people throw around "the next Pearl" loosely. I'm excited about everything downtown and San Antonio in general, just be weary of the announced projects headlines and the hype. Make sure it makes sense in the right now, future is icing on the cake.
