The Waller Creek Conservancy has announced the four finalists in their design competition. Below is a snapshot of each:

The CMG and Public Architecture Team, led by Willett Moss and John Peterson, intends to create, “a landscape authentic in its manifestation of Austin’s Character.”

The KSLA, TELA, + RMA Team, led by Ken Smith, Christine Ten Eyck, Robert Rogers, and Jonathan Marvel, share how they are, “committed to creating a better functioning, dynamic and accessible open space system along Waller Creek.”

Precluding any surface level improvements to Waller Creek, the City of Austin must complete the excavation of the massive drainage tunnel which pulls the adjacent land out of the flood plain. Downtown Austin Blog had the opportunity to go into the tunnel earlier this month (footage below)!
