Ok, so a park opens in Austin. You may wonder why you'd care.
Well, Town Lake Park has been 20-years in the making in Austin and is actually a big deal locally. The $7.5M park is located in a great area of town near the Long Center and Palmer Events Center. The reason for excitement of Town Lake Park is that the new, expensive park will host a variety of features that captures the essence of Austin.
One blogger noted that Town Lake Park does not quite live up to the original vision presented almost 9 years ago. The July 2006, the Austin Chronicle detailed the cutbacks. Still it has been transformed into a wonderful space.
If you Google "Town Lake Park", you'd bring up many stories on what it is and what the features are.
