SUMMARY:Open House: Programming on the Butler Trail & Seaholm Waterfront
DESCRIPTION:Feedback is the best way to improve and create community programming that benefits you! We’re starting a new phase of community engagement focused on improving and shaping our public programming on the Butler Trail\, including the future Seaholm Waterfront.

Please take 4 minutes to reflect on your Butler Trail experience and complete our Community Programming Survey. \nWhat is Seaholm Waterfront?\nThe historic Art Deco Seaholm Intake building—formerly a power plant pump house—is being transformed into a community asset for daily use. In partnership with the Austin Parks and Recreation Department\, The Trail Conservancy will undertake a renovation of this building and its grounds to create Seaholm Waterfront\, a unique space for everyone who lives\, works\, and travels in Austin. With architectural design resuming\, the Phase 2 project will take 3–4 years to complete\, after which The Trail Conservancy will operate the site.
