So, one of my favorite North Austin neighborhoods is in for a facelift. Not only is the city doing layover zoning nearby (vertical, mixed use, pedestian focus), but the light commuter rail station is coming to Braker & Burnet area by Fall 2008! In fact, Cap Metro said that the whole thing should be operational by then!!
If you don't know where my favorite neighborhood is- take out your map- Look North Of 183 and South of Braker, Between Burnet and Lamar. That's the spot.
