I'd walk there each day as excersize with my dog. She loves the grounds surrounding the plaza & I did alotofpeople watching. During the water & power outages after the icy snowstorms that shut down everything within 100 mi of Austin HEB had the closest available bathrooms.. consisting of both portable sinks w/nice warm water, soap & paper towels AND clean portable toilets with paper & seat covers. We had to be careful with the bathrooms at home that long week without running water. For obvious reasons you just didn't want to use them much & so, like many other families I trekked over there daily to take care of business.
It's been a year since those deadly storm brought Texas to her knees & it took the Texas-sized Food Retailer of HEB to really save all of Austin's neighborhoods during those 10 days of uncertainty when the only two sure things were, 1: it was gonna be COLDER before "normal" returned. #2 The other sure thing was knowing that the next time Texas's neighborhoods got into major trouble, HEB would have our...

This store tends to the elder community and they've blown it. Every store should have its individual glory. This...
Read moreI walk here all the time because it reminds me of childhood. Heb, mackdonalds, and JRS comics and cards been there forever. The businesses on the side of the strip mall closest to the intersection seemed to have done worse than the businesses tucked away into the corner on the quieter side. I like the Chinese restaurant, kind staff. They got a nail salon, subway, little ceasars with mad cheap pizzas. A dojo for learning some asian fighting stuff.

Theres also two piece Tuesday around the corner and discount...
