Bathroom spruce-up at Festival Beach

The Trail Foundation is doing 15 projects this year in honor of its 15th anniversary. One of them is providing a much-needed revamp to the old bathroom facilities at Festival Beach, which were identified as needing replacement in the Holly Shores Master Plan. The new bathrooms will be designed by Jobe Corral Architects, a woman-owned firm from Austin. The Trail Foundation and the architects are inviting interested members in the community to come to the East Cesar Chavez Neighborhood Meeting at the Austin Public Library Terrazas Branch on May 16 at 6 p.m., where there will be a small presentation and opportunity to provide feedback. An online survey will be released as well for those who cannot attend the meeting. “The Trail Foundation hopes to break ground at the beginning of next year, barring any delays in the permitting process,” the foundation’s executive director, Heidi Anderson, said in the press release.
