Talk:San Antonio Japanese Tea Garden

message: Last I checked, about a month ago, the gardens were under construction and rehabilitation.  I live close, so I'll try to swing by and snap a couple of photos for this article.  --Brownings 16:02, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, so the gardens are open again, I stopped by there on my way home from work on Friday.  If the clouds ever clear up here in San Antonio, I'll get over there to snap a few photos.  The renovations look pretty good, but it seems like they didn't touch most of the "pond/pool" area.  --Brownings 14:21, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

text: Hello.  I live near the gardens and have lived my whole life in San Antonio.  I haven't been to the gardens in a couple of years.  It was obviously in the worst shape ever at the time.  I'm glad to hear it is being restored somewhat.  I hope they can do more sooner than later.  I was wondering if anyone reading this has any pictures of the gardens in the 70's or 80's...or maybe even The Bamboo Room during the first years?  Maybe these pictures will spark someone into thinking better of the old quarry.  --Orbfile23 18:04, 02 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Picture request

message: The article reads like one location; I was under the impression that next door to the 'Japanese Tea Gardens' was an open air stage called 'The Sunken Gardens' (see photo section). Two separate, but contextually related places. I'm no expert - I went there once, many moons.
:You know, I think you're right.  From everything I've heard, they are two seperate places.  I think the only time they really get lumped together is in the city budget and planning.  I'll take a look and see if there is a better way at wording the current text.  --Brownings 10:40, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clarification 

message: I've added citations from the San Antonio Parks Foundation website, including a PDF history they produced. I've researched the claim that "In recognition of the Tea Garden's origin as a rock quarry that played a prominent role in the development of the cement  business, as well as its later redevelopment as a garden, the site is designated as a Texas Civil Engineering Landmark, a Registered Texas Historic Landmark, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places."  I cannot find any mention of the Japanese (Or Chinese) Tea Gardens in any list of Texas Civil Engineering Landmarks or Registered Texas Historical Landmarks.  The only item in the National Register is the faux stone entrance sign, not the entire garden. Mike Nishimuta (talk) 03:47, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
