The Alamo, originally a mission and later a military fortification, faced significant destruction over the years, particularly after the Battle of the Alamo in 1836. Many of its structures were repurposed or demolished as the area developed. The remaining structure, primarily the chapel, was preserved due to its historical significance, while the rest of the site was lost to time and urbanization. Today, it stands as a symbol of Texas independence and resilience.
