Developer plans 200-foot-high Ferris wheel in downtown San Antonio
An amusement-development group plans to build an entertainment complex two blocks from the Alamo anchored by a 200-foot-high Ferris wheel offering expansive views of the city. The Grandismo project will include not just the towering wheel bearing the same name but a miniature golf course, a custom carousel ride and a food and drink hall, according to details shared online by Jacksonville, Florida-based developer Icon. Icon is under contract to buy nearly an acre of land for the development at 902 E. Houston St., according to the Express-News.
