Description
The Bouldin Creek neighborhood in near South Austin is bounded by Town Lake on the north and Oltorf Street on the south. It lies between South Congress Avenue to the east, and the Union Pacific railroad tracks near South Lamar Boulevard to the west. There are over 2,700 households and over 5,600 residents in the area, which includes Auditorium Shores, Long Center for the Performing Arts, and the Lester E. Palmer Community Events Center. Residents can walk or bicycle among tall oak trees and historic homes to family-owned grocery stores, bakeries, barber shops, restaurants and cafes. This close-in model of compact residential and commercial harmony features two little-known gems-in-the-rough: East- and West-Bouildin Creek Parks, which border their respective creeks. These parcels of community parkland offer promising opportunities for greenbelt and hike and bike-trail connections to Town Lake recreation and commuting networks.
