Explore the homestead of Austin's oldest residence at the French Legation State Historic Site, where you will discover how the Texas settlement and the growth of one of the capital city’s most vibrant neighborhoods came to be. Tour the museum, whose original structure was built to accommodate the diplomatic outpost for the French chargé d’affaires to the Republic of Texas, Alphonse Dubois, after France recognized the Republic of Texas as a sovereign nation.
The Millennium Youth Entertainment Complex hosts thousands of patrons in community activities, fellowship, and commercial events. The venue routinely serves as a mega-voting site for civic engagement, a resource distribution hub during a weather crisis, and a meeting location for neighborhood planning and town halls. They also offer 16 bowling lanes, roller skating, a professional-grade basketball court, a video arcade, a movie theater, and a food court.
Take a drive across the scenic Pennybacker Bridge, also known as the Loop 360 Boat Ramp, where the weathering steel bridge is said to blend perfectly with the natural environment of Austin and has won several architectural and engineering awards. This three-acre park is for launching and picking up watercraft, as well as access to fishing along the shoreline that is covered by a few bald cypresses and sycamore trees to offer shade.
