History of Austin, Texas

It’s not Ken Burns good but Austin Power and the Austin History Center teamed up to create an informative and interesting slide show on the history of Austin using some very old photographs. Thanks to Craveytrain for the tip.

Four years ago, I bought a panoramic photograph of Austin circa 1910 overlooking the intersection of Congress Avenue and 6th Street and had it framed after I moved from Austin to Chicago. It remains as one of the few items of wall art that has stayed with me over the years. I imagine I will continue to acquire photography pieces from Texas to round out my own collection moving forward because, let’s face it: I’m a proud Texan as all Texans are raised to be.

I was just listening to TV On The Radio - Hours
