City Plans Purchase of Two Downtown Blocks for Convention Center Expansion

James Rambin September 9, 2020 Comment

Later this month, Austin’s City Council is expected to authorize the first steps of an exclusive negotiation agreement with multiple property owners that would result in the city’s purchase of two full adjacent downtown blocks for the planned expansion of the Austin Convention Center, according to documents prepared by the city’s Office of Real Estate Services and…

In 1980, Austin’s Zoning Board Made a 9-Year-Old Tear Down His Clubhouse

James Rambin September 23, 2019 Comment

Central Austin’s Baffling Street Grid Is Entirely One Man’s Fault

Austin Daily History August 28, 2019 Comment

Austin’s Finally Fixing Up John Treviño Metro Park — But Not Too Much

James Rambin July 13, 2019 Comment

Only twenty scant acres smaller than Zilker Park, the 330-acre tract of former ranchland at the edge of District 1 now known as John Treviño Jr. Metro Park is perhaps the second most underutilized park space in far East Austin. The first, of course, is Walter E. Long Metro Park, but the almost bizarrely ambitious $800 million master plan for that enormous potential…

At Holly Point, Long-Awaited Upgrades Head for an East Austin Park

James Rambin July 3, 2019 Comment

The long-discussed plan for the improvement of East Austin’s enormous tracts of parkland on the north shores of Lady Bird Lake near the former Holly Power Plant is finally taking its first small steps, nearly a decade after City Council approved the development of a vision for upgrading the area in 2009. Generally referred to…
