Situated perfectly about 500 feet from the bulk of Tom Miller Dam, this first bridge on Town Lake can at first appear to be as bland as all the rest. But when the sparse rains roll through Central Texas, the flood gates open and the docile fisherman’s pond below the dam returns to its raging Colorado river roots. The view is even better at night due to orange and purple flood lights (no pun intended) along the eastern bank, creating a surreal scene of shadows, spray, and surf amid raging flood waters.
