The words “Our Future” and “35” together have a way of raising the blood pressure, as it reminds us of the many years of construction (and destruction) we’ll face as the Central Austin portion of Interstate 35 gets its glow-up via the I-35 Capital Express project. But Our Future 35 is the city’s attempt at a positive outcome from the massive TxDOT project, with plans for “caps and stitches” across the highway akin to Dallas’ Klyde Warren Park, adding public park space where there was formerly just concrete and exhaust. Curious about how it’ll all shake out? Swing by the open house from 10am to 2pm to see concept sketches informed by community feedback received over the summer. – Kat McNevins
