Austin will never fully acknowledge its racist past. The gentrification of the east side continues apace. https://twitter.com/TracyJan/status/974611580745867264

This was the extent of the physical dividing line prior to I-35.

Land on the east side was razed, land on the west side preserved.

Physical barriers matter.

You can find a few more pics on Google but it seems like the rest of TXDOT's archival pics haven't gone online yet. I have many, many more pics from this period on a disc somewhere from an undergrad UT project w/ geo prof Davies. If I find the CD I'll see if it's OK to post some.
