The historic land commission did not receive a historic landmark designation for 555 Porter St. at the Feb. 20 City Council meeting.
The building is part of the River Mill redevelopment, which is worth tens of millions, according to city documents.
New Braunfels has previously demonstrated its support of the project with the creation of the city’s second tax increment reinvestment zone, which will cover the development and some 35 acres of the surrounding area.
In previous meetings, the property’s historic value had been called into question. The building has been altered numerous times over the years and lacks any meaningful remains of its original design.
