fi nalist lifestyle hotel fi nalist upscale hotel public space Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk Texas The 195-room Canopy by Hilton in the heart of San Antonio evokes an industrial elegance by combining the remains of a 19th-century building with modern touches, including a new addition by Lake|Flato outfi tt ed with metal structures that form balconies. The interiors from MARKZEFF take cues from the 100-year-old Cypress trees that suspend above the waterway and almost touch the new building, adding a sense of grandeur and splendor to the site. A standout is the cistern found during demolition. The team restored it and added seating, creating a focal point in the open-air Domingo restaurant.
