I found an old map of Austin while visiting my grandpa one summer afternoon. It was a map from the 90’s, and there are many more roads than there are on the map. I decided to cut it up and reflect on every corner of Northwest Austin – places I’ve been, that were special to me, and places I’ve worked.

Depending on who you talk to, North Austin is defined as North of 183, or West of Mopac. I’m labeling it as north of 290.

You’ll find a recurring theme – Westlake sucks and that the best Asian food is found in the most unexpected corners of the city.
