The Scarbrough Building’s ‘Keep Austin Weird’ Sculpture Has Some Haters

James Rambin June 1, 2018 Comment

Remember that pocket patio and "Keep Austin Weird" sculpture planned in front of the Scarbrough Building at the corner of Congress Avenue and Sixth Street? I ripped on the sculpture a little last time for being kinda corny, but now I feel bad about it. Turns out a significant portion of Austin's Historic Landmark Commission really doesn't like it.

The project, spearheaded by local landscape architecture firm dwg., will reclaim several parking spaces for the outdoor space . . .
