A pipe was destroyed inside the historic Gunter Hotel, triggering sprinklers that caused major water damage and could lead to staff layoffs.
During demolition work inside the downtown Gunter Hotel in early July, a water pipe was accidentally destroyed, triggering sprinklers that caused water damage to half the building.
The hotel’s closure on July 3 prompted the company that manages the hotel staff, Evolution Hospitality, to alert the Texas Workforce Commission that the hotel could be forced to lay off up to 75 employees by Oct. 1 if additional “unforeseen delays in renovation occur.” Those layoffs would be temporary, the letter said.
“I’ve learned so much about San Antonio in this process,” said Choi, who is working with Elizabeth Fauerso ofto connect the upscale renovation to the hotel’s storied past. “Everyone I meet has a story about the Gunter.” Korean bakery chain Paris Baguette will move into the corner space at East Houston and N. St. Mary’s streets in an area that’s now used as a meeting space, Choi said, and a new restaurant will take the space along Houston that the Market on Houston used to occupy.
