Take the Palm District survey
Wednesday, July 7, 2021 by Tai Moses
The future of the Palm School has been top of mind for many Austinites concerned about this property that is a cultural touchstone for the Mexican American community. As the Housing and Planning Department works on developing a plan for the entire Palm District – the area on the eastern edge of downtown, bordered by Interstate 35 and Trinity Street, from Rainey Street to 15th Street – the city is seeking public input on the district’s future. Explore the district, take the Palm District Planning Survey on SpeakUpAustin and leave questions for the project team on the city’s project website.
