It’s here where every street corner offers a unique tapestry of different eateries, music venues, and retailers. Many residents love the convenience of the beautiful walking and biking trails of Lady Bird Lake. Mornings buzz with anticipation for the day ahead, while afternoons settle into a quieter rhythm. The city truly comes alive after sunset, when crowds flock to local events, indulge in drinks, and soak in the vibrant urban atmosphere.
Downtown Austin has all of your basics. For shopping you can head to the boutique-filled 2nd Street District or venture over to North Lamar and West 6th street for a range of stores from West Elm to Anthropology.
