Marriott Rivercenter, Skyscraper in San Antonio, United States
The Marriott Rivercenter is a 38-story hotel tower rising 546 feet (166 meters) along San Antonio's River Walk. The building bridges directly to Rivercenter Mall through two connecting levels.
Construction completed in 1988 as a key component of the River Walk revitalization effort. The project transformed downtown San Antonio into one of the city's major destinations.
The shape of the building echoes the bell towers found in the city's Spanish colonial missions and cathedral. This design choice connects the structure to San Antonio's religious heritage.
The hotel provides immediate access to shopping and dining options through its connections to the mall and riverside areas. Visitors can reach the area's main attractions on foot.
The building's tip reaches just slightly higher than a nearby tower, yet its roofline sits noticeably lower. This unusual proportion creates a distinctive visual quality.
