Overview

The Travis Building: Historic Luxury Living in Downtown San Antonio

Architectural Heritage and Renovation

The Travis Building, an icon at 405 N Saint Mary’s Street in the heart of downtown San Antonio, stands as a testament to thoughtful preservation and modern reinvention. Originally constructed in the 1920s, this 10-story landmark was meticulously converted from office space into a premier residential complex, offering 63 luxury apartments alongside nearly 20,000 square feet of retail and office space. The renovation respected the building’s historic character, restoring original features like tile flooring in the corridors and wood floors within the units—details that lend a unique charm not found in new constructions.

Unique Living Spaces and Amenities

Each apartment in the Travis Building is distinct, with floor plans that vary in size and layout due to the building’s original office footprint. Units typically range from approximately 500 to 750 square feet, with most being one-bedroom apartments and select two-bedroom residences available on each floor. High-end finishes and modern amenities define the interiors, providing residents with both comfort and style. The building also boasts a state-of-the-art fitness center in the basement, interior bike storage, and a residents’ lounge with direct access to the famous San Antonio Riverwalk. Additional conveniences include 24-hour access, a business center, on-site maintenance, and secure gated entry.

Environmental Innovation and Preservation

The Travis Building’s transformation is also notable for its sustainability. It was the first project in San Antonio to utilize the Texas Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program, which enabled energy-efficient upgrades and sustainable systems while preserving the building’s historic fabric. This approach not only honors the past but also ensures the building’s long-term viability as a modern, efficient residence.
