Neighborhood

The unique charm of East Cesar Chavez becomes instantly clear as you travel down East Cesar Chavez Street, the neighborhood’s main thoroughfare. The Downtown Austin skyline forms a backdrop of glass and steel, while funky, brightly-painted shops line the streets. This is one of Austin’s oldest neighborhoods, and its history is evident in the Victorian architecture that dominates the area. In this trendy neighborhood, yoga studios sit next to bars; antique stores next to taco stands. Vivid murals add even more color to the already vivid landscape, and Lady Bird Lake is lined with trees and flowers.

Adjacent to Downtown Austin and south of Huston-Tillotson University, East Cesar Chavez is ideally located – blending the beauty of the Colorado River, park space, and the Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail with the nightlife, museums, and shopping of Downtown Austin. The University of Texas at Austin is also nearby, just two miles northwest.
