The Inn was originally located on the corner of West Houston and Rosillo Streets. By the time we saw the house in 1996, it was as derelict as some of the vagrants who slept there. Completely boarded up, railings askew, damaged by fires, water and termites, this dowager had not aged gracefully. The previous owners requested a demolition permit. Luckily the city had denied the initial request. However, as the Victorian was not located in an area protected by historic covenants, eventually it would have been torn down or allowed to decay until she fell.

In March 1997 we moved the Victorian six miles (in small pieces) to this location. After that, more than a simple facelift was required. She has been totally renovated inside and out. In all cases, the original woodwork, windows and trim were used while antique style lumber, flooring, and trim were custom milled to retain the authenticity.

The Victorian is the largest building (other than the Plaza Hotel) successfully moved in San Antonio History
