About the Business
The Teddy Roosevelt Statue is a tourist attraction located at 198-102 Blum Street in San Antonio, Texas, United States. The statue is currently being prepared for relocation to its permanent location outside of the Menger Hotel Bar, in front of Rivercenter Mall.

The regiment trained in San Antonio at the Menger Hotel Bar before going to war. Roosevelt served as President from 1901 to 1909 and had a special connection to San Antonio, stating that no city had a greater claim on him than San Antonio. The bronze statue was donated by Jack Guenther and is part of the Alamo Sculpture Trail. Visitors can support the preservation of the Alamo's beauty and history by making donations.

"I've now been to the Eastern most, (New York), Northern and possibly the Western most (North Dakota), the largest, and now Southern most Theodore Roosevelt statues in the U.S. An excellent statue. Perhaps the best. It truly is a hidden and unexpected treat for fans."
"A great statue of T.R., and right across the way from the Rough Rider bar at the Menger Hotel!"
