About Austin

Starting as a settlement named Waterloo, with immigrants from Germany, Sweden, and Mexico- Austin saw intense periods of growth followed by the renaming of the town to Austin after Stephen F. Austin, ‘The Father of Texas’, and became the state capital in 1839.

The 1850s saw the first building boom with the construction of the first Capitol building in 1853.

A second boom occurred in the 1870s with the arrival of the railroad. In 1883, Austin became a college town with the founding of the University of Texas at Austin.

Following this, the impressive Driskill Hotel opened to the then bustling city of Austin in 1886. With the current capitol completed in 1888, the skyline we know today began to take shape.
