HISTORY OF SOUTHEAST AUSTIN
Located just six miles from downtown, settlement in Southeast Austin can be traced back to the 1850s. Perhaps one of the most recognized historical fixtures in this part of town is the Onion Creek Club, which was established in 1974 and hosted The Legends of Golf, the first senior professional golf tournament, for 11 years beginning in 1978. The northern side of Southeast Austin is bordered by Lady Bird Lake, a reservoir formed in 1960 as a flood control and cooling pond and is now a hot spot for recreation. The area around the lake has undergone several beautification projects over the decades and is now known for its scenic gardens and hiking/bike trail. Initially named Town Lake (which is what many locals still call it today), the lake was renamed Lady Bird Lake in 2007 after US First Lady Lady Bird Johnson.

Southeast Austin itself is a more family-oriented neighborhood tucked away from the stirrings of downtown. However, if you are craving the energy and activities offered in the heart of the city, luckily you’re only minutes away. For adventure within this neighborhood, McKinney Falls State Park attracts thousands of visitors with its magnificent views of waterfalls, hundred year old trees, and lush grounds for camping, hiking, and fishing. Visitors can enjoy swimming in Onion Creek as well. Park-lovers may also be interested in Mabel Davis District Park, which underwent a $6 million restoration in 2005 constructing new swimming pools, basketball courts, and picnic areas. It’s also the location of Austin’s first public BMX and skate park. Obviously, residents will want to play a round of golf at both the historic Onion Creek Golf Club and the Riverside Golf Course, each of which have hosted countless pro golf legends over the years.
