UTSA lures development north—hook, line and sinker​

​​​​​​​​​SAN ANTONIO – The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) has become an increasingly enticing hook that could lure more major companies and development northwest of the center city.

One clear sign that the city’s economic development opportunities are not exclusively tethered to downtown is the decision by Ernst & Young to expand its presence outside of San Antonio’s urban core. 

UTSA was the hook that lured Ernst & Young​.

Ernst & Young’s expansion to Northwest San Antonio, where it will create up to 600 new jobs, was prompted in large part by its planned new client service center’s proximity to UTSA and a pipeline of young, trained talent.

The new campus will be housed in the Farinon Business Park, which is currently under development near I-10 and De Zavala Rd.
