1-12-2014 Ride on Rainey Street

Rainey Street is a hip little enclave near downtown Austin.  It is right on the river and is just east of downtown.  High rises are building that way.  Rainey street is a collection of old houses that people live in, and mostly old houses that have been repurposed to businesses.  It is a bit run down almost like nobody wants to put any money into something big because they know that soon highrises will be there.

Below you will see an interesting shipping container bar that is going in.  It is fascinating what they are doing and it will be neat to chart their progress.  I have always been very interested in shipping containers.

We rode around for a while and we were going to eat at Rainey street, but they were out of the Veggie Burgers so we went to How Do you Roll?  Which is a sushi fast food chain.  I didn't review the restaurant.
