You are totally smoking crack. People will continue to desire to live "close to the action", particularly all the yuppy douchebags that keep flocking to this city. Austin will have to stack up condo d...

hey, let's show how tolerant and open-minded we are! Let's slag these people who opposed a ballot initiative that we agreed with and supported it with their hard-earned cash. Let's post their private ...

They don't care about that JRR. All that matters to those companies is squeezing more money out of newly-arrived condo seekers. Those companies are more interested in redesigning Austin to look and fe...

Yeah, the Reddy Ice building was cool. So were the car lots at 6th & Lamar that used to have the towering light posts that attracted swarms of bugs in the summer (and consequently swarms of bats). I a...
