Answer:

The San Antonio River Walk and parts of the Appalachian Trail were funded by the Works Progress Administration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Works Projects Administration or WPA was the main agency instituted within the framework of the New Deal. It was created on May 6, 1935 by a presidential order (it was financed by Congress, but it was not established). The mission of the WPA was to employ millions of unemployed people throughout the United States, in order to execute public works programs, among them, the San Antonio River Walk.

The WPA employed millions of Americans creating temporary jobs, and its influence extended to almost all localities, essentially in the mountainous and rural regions of the west of the country.
