Austin History Center

This one comes from our hearts and souls: While we were researching our "Lost Austin" issue, the folks at the Austin History Center became our best friends. A resource for everything from turn of the (previous) century photographs to newspaper clippings, they provided us with a wealth of information about our town past, which told us a lot about the present. As an unexpected bonus, an exhibit enlightened us about long-ago fashions and accessories - we came for photos of Congress Avenue, and left with so much more!
