About Medical Center
The dense Medical Center district on clay terraces near Huebner Creek.
Why foundations move here
Like the rest of San Antonio, Medical Center sits on ground that shifts with the seasons. Deep Houston Black clay south of the Balcones Escarpment, with thin soils over Edwards limestone to the north. Steel piers bypass that movement by reaching load-bearing strata below.
Common signs in Medical Center homes
- Doors and windows that stick, drag, or won’t latch
- Stair-step cracks in exterior brick or block
- Sloping or bouncy floors and a slab that feels “off”
- Drywall cracks fanning from door and window corners
- Gaps opening between walls, trim, and the ceiling
- Cracks in the slab or at the garage floor
