Set on former ranch land, this northwest branch features a 30-foot hybrid windmill powering an indoor water feature.
Description
At the edge of a future 24-acre park on Hausman Road, the grounds open into South Texas wildflower meadows and Texas Hill Country live oaks. The design preserves the land's history, retaining an old limestone meat-curing house alongside the roughly 16,000-square-foot building. Named for San Antonio educator and playwright John Igo, the branch pairs computer labs and community meeting space with its function as an environmental demonstration project.
