San Antonio Council discusses Man's Meat Market proposal for historic building site

During the Boerne Historic Landmark Commission meeting on May 6, 2025, members discussed the proposed opening of a new business, Man's Meat Market, at a site located at San Antonio and North Main. The building, constructed in 1967, is recognized as a nineteenth-century commercial style structure that originally housed Ebner's Drugstore. Although it holds historical significance, it is classified as a non-contributing structure within the historic district.

The commission reviewed the implications of this new business on the area, particularly in relation to the existing Black Rifle Coffee shop nearby. The discussions highlighted the importance of maintaining the character of the historic district while accommodating new commercial ventures.

As Boerne continues to evolve, the integration of new businesses like Man's Meat Market is seen as a way to enhance the local economy while respecting the town's historical roots. The commission's decisions will play a crucial role in shaping the future of this area, balancing growth with preservation.
