An architectural delight overlooking Town Lake, City Hall continues to be the best new addition to downtown Austin. Clad in copper and limestone, the four-story contemporary structure designed by Antoine Predock offers a plaza, mezzanine, and amphitheatre areas, and a media room which may be reserved by the general public. Under certain circumstances, the council chamber, board and commission rooms, atrium, and certain balcony areas may be available, making this truly a public space … and one to be proud of. 301 W. Second, 974-2220 www.ci.austin.tx.us/cityhall
