San Antonio Architecture Tour
The San Pedro Branch Library has a rich history and is also tied to our city’s great architecture gems. The father-son architectural firm of Atlee and Robert Ayres is responsible for designing our library as well as many significant public buildings and private residences in south Texas and beyond.
We invite you to take a self-guided tour about town. Here are some notable designs in San Antonio by Atlee and Robert Ayres, designers of the San Pedro Branch Library building.
