A view of the San Antonio River in downtown San Antonio, with a stone arch bridge, small passenger boats, flower-lined banks, and a tall pink hotel in the background. The caption presents the river as one of the city's scenic attractions. San Antonio's river has long been a center of downtown life; civic improvements in the 1930s and 1940s eventually shaped its banks into the landscaped River Walk.
