amber gugino — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:27:22 +0000

My friend Zeke had a vision. He had a vision to make workouts fun and accessible to guys who don’t usually work out and who generally don’t really like working out. He had a vision to blend exercise with exploring. Zeke (and the other founding members of the group) made his vision into reality with [...]

New (to me) Farmer's Market for Downtown Austin Residents – HOPE Farmer's Market

amber gugino — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:09:20 +0000

I live on the east edges of Downtown Austin, and one of my very favorite things about my location is that I can walk to East Austin on a whim. It’s like I get the best of both worlds. There’s soooo much happening on the east side of I-35, and many of my favorite retail/restaurant [...]

amber gugino — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:07:54 +0000

Well, at least on the first Saturday of every month from 1pm – 4pm….. I read this article in the Statesman over the holiday weekend, and I must admit, I was a little intrigued. Apparently, a group of parents (The Little Lounge Lizards) have organized a monthly family-friendly dance party at downtown Austin dance club [...]

Day three, becoming a model urban neighborhood: what does Downtown Austin need?

Jude Galligan — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 15:22:14 +0000

Each day this week I am serving up one item, with non-politically correct candor, that Downtown Austin needs to become a model of re-urbanization, as I see it. Politicians love to talk, form task forces, and spend time doing everything except for making decisions as they are needed. So, this is an appeal to Downtown [...]

Emergence of Austin's Urban Family?

Jude Galligan — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 15:05:00 +0000

Last month a baby was born in my building! No kidding. Mom and Dad decided to employ a mid-wife and birth the baby in their condo. This morning Chris Bradford over at Austin Contrarian posted an interesting map showing where “families” lived in the year 2000. Downtown Austin, not surprisingly, showed very few.
