Program: Centro San Pedro Lake Amistad, Texas

Abstract

The Centro San Pedro will be an entertainment, educational, and cultural center for the promotion of tourism and increased understanding of the Mexican culture. The site of the proposed center is in the San Pedro Canyon Estates (SPCE)development on Lake Amistad near Del Rio, Texas (see Figure 1). The developers of the SPCE, Peekskill Investment Corporation, have developed part of the property with residences, and a Convention Center Hotel has been proposed for the site adjacent to the Centro San Pedro. Lake Amistad is a man made lake, and, as part of the Rio Grande, forms the border with Mexico. The site then, is an ideal location for the center with its situation at the border, and the additional tourist attractions of the lake and convention Center Hotel being present. In addition, the growth of Del Rio towards the Lake Amistad area makes the location increasingly viable for use by local people.
