You wouldn't necessarily peg the 2.84-acre plot on the east side of Interstate 35 between East 11th and 12th Streets as a fierce battleground for the soul of Austin. That's not to say that the swooping pink roofline of the former Lucky Lady Bingo Hall isn't charming, but at the end of the day it's an unassuming strip mall dominated mostly by its shockingly large parking lot. Still, nearly every scrap of land in the downtown and downtown-adjacent territories of our city has a story, and this one happens to go way back . . .
