SAN ANTONIO — Winter should be approaching the calendar, however it’s already arrived to San Antonio’s northwest aspect.

Thought it won’t have the may of a Winterfell or King’s Landing, nestled between Brandeis High and Bamberger Nature Park is a small neighborhood that briefly helps guests think about they’re navigating the realms of Westeros, the place the drama of HBO’s hit collection “Game of Thrones” unfolds. 

Several street signs in the neighborhood of Archer Oaks are named after characters and capitals from the present. The names for the Archer Oaks streets embrace Westeros Path, Winterfell, Arya Way and – in a nod to younger Arya’s nimble however vicious weapon – Needle Creek.

No phrase on if a Targaryen Drive or White Walker Way will be part of the signs in some unspecified time in the future sooner or later, however there’s just one factor we are saying to lack of hope: Not as we speak. One factor’s for positive: Temperatures is likely to be falling in South Texas, however no less than it is some solace to know we do not have to bundle up like we’re touring north of The Wall.
