Who was Emily Morgan, and why does her name appear on this hotel? What secrets do the Woolworth Building, Hotel Gibbs, and Post Office hold?

Then hear how two hotels rewrote San Antonio's skyline: one built in an impossible 202 days, another that cost $1 million to move less than one mile. Why move it?
