About 'Absoulte Equality'

"The 'Absoulte Equality' mosaic mural is designed to celebrate the overarching ideals of equality, unity, and community empowerment," explained Reginald Adams. "This artwork will serve as a vibrant representation of Austin's commitment to diversity and inclusivity. By visually narrating the journey toward equality, the mural will inspire dialogue and reflection among viewers, fostering a deeper sense of connection within the community."

About the Longhorn Dam Bridge Project

Through community engagement, a "wishbone" shaped bridge was chosen to connect the Ann and Roy Butler Trail at Longhorn Shores, Canterbury and the Holly Peninsula in Town Lake Metropolitan Park. The bridge will provide an alternate option to the sidewalk on Pleasant Valley Road and fill a gap on the Butler Trail. This project began construction in early July 2024 and is anticipated to be complete in the summer of 2026. To learn more , please visit our .
