Was this burger made for two? We are starting to think so!

Three-quarters of a pound of charbroiled Angus in a handmade patty? No wonder they already come cut in half! Challenge yourself to eat a full one, or save room for some mouth-watering apps and share a beautiful burger made for two.

Let's go to Casino El Camino ๐Ÿ”

๐ŸŒณ One of our very favorite things about this beautiful space we call Downtown Austin is how intertwined it is with nature. We have trails, parks, green spaces, creeks and wildlife pockets throughout the heart of Austin. Some of the best views of our skyline can be found at the lake.

We're so lucky! Happy Nature Photography Day! ๐Ÿ“ธ

Paired with some of the best rooftop views in Austin, immaculate vibes, a sweet restaurant and really fun decorating details to discover in each area! ๐Ÿคฉ It's a great night all around, so we would highlight it as the epitome of a night out!

As the Paramount Theater closes for renovations, we are so grateful we were able to host the Future of Downtown there last month before the closure.

According to the Shine On timeline, the updates are planned to be completed in 8-9 months. We can't wait to see the beauty of this revamped historic icon!

๐Ÿคฉ Pinch me; it doesn't feel real!

The dreamiest 13 acres of greenspace and 1.5 miles of trail just opened downtown this weekend to restore and conserve Waller Creek! The Confluence connects Waterloo Greenway to the Hike & Bike Trail around Lady Bird Lake, creating a safe, immersive off-road trail for walkers, runners, and bikers. The Confluence added

๐ŸŒณ 1,600 new trees
๐ŸŒต 200,000 native plants
๐ŸŒผ 10 acres of seed mixes

that improve air quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, combat the urban heat island effect and support wildlife.

This project represents a $91.5 million public-private investment and years of community collaboration, environmental restoration and innovative design!

Come explore this new beauty for yourself ๐Ÿคฉ
