Across Third Street from our future home is the completely redone, almost-but-not-quite finished Austin Music Hall. I snapped a picture Sunday. It's going to be a neat building. They have taken some flack by trying to have a grand opening before it was finished, but ultimately I think they will be a good neighbor for the Ballet Austin and our home. Can you say Arts District? Of course, if the W Hotel and Condos (and the adjacent new home of Austin City Limits) gets built a couple of blocks away it will be really neat. But we aren't holding our collective breaths because they haven't broken ground.

Looks like a modern design. I personally prefer something less fadish as classical designs seem to be more enduring.
ReplyDeleteHaving such a great facility ought to expand Austin's musical heritage and reputation.
