A video by TikTok user Amanda Frazier showing a view from the Drury Inn & Suites San Antonio Near La Cantera Parkway, which has been dubbed the "view of doom and despair" near Loop 1604, has been viewed nearly five million times and over 3,000 comments. The video criticizes Texas for its decreasing amount of wooded areas, with some calling it the "ugliest state" and "the Lorax". The hotel is located near attractions such as The Shops at La Canaa, SeaWorld, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The Texas Department of Transportation is also working on a $1.4 billion project to improve Loop 1605, aiming to transform it into a 10-lane highway and replace the I-10 and Loop.
