Phoneguy,

If you read that article carefully, it mentions that the legislature bought the buildings in 1905. They then appointed the DRT as the managers. The only way the state could move control back to TPWD is if they really owned it. Otherwise, they would have had to use eminent domain or try to convince the DRT to sell.

And, the conclusive proof is on the Alamo's own web site. Under the faq's, it specifically states it is owned by the State of Texas and operated by the DRT.

Just so you know, the Alamo is NOT legally off limits. It is owned by the State of Texas and is not a meeting site or court room.

Last I heard, it was posted, but the posting is not truly legal.
