Rainey Street is probably Austin's most interesting urban planning experiment. The starting gun for the area's rapid transformation was a 2005 rezoning of what used to be a working-class neighborhood of single-family homes, allowing commercial projects like bars and multifamily developments to rise.
Now, the Rainey Street area is practically unrecognizable from its past life, and despite its relatively small size, there's so much development going on in these few blocks . . .
