More stories for downtown
Monday, March 27, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
The Downtown Austin Alliance and the city’s Parks and Recreation Department are looking for your stories about Brush, Republic and Wooldridge Square as part of a project intended to tie Austin’s civic spaces to its residents (and their history). The project, known as “Our Austin Story,” will be collecting stories through the end of April. There is a meeting on Tuesday, March 28, at City Hall, where you can contribute in person from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. Stories are also being collected online here.
