I’d recommend that any visitor to Austin, Texas take some time to walk through the South Congress neighborhood.  It is an eclectic shopping district that definitely contributes to the “Keep Austin Weird” vibe promoted by small businesses in the city.  One of the attractions of the area is the unimpeded views of the Texas State Capitol building from along the length of the avenue, and for transit fans, this means it is easy to capture the Capitol building and the other parts of the downtown skyline in any photos taken in this area.  Furthermore, one of the two MetroRapid routes operated by Capital Metro serves this corridor, so the photo opportunities come frequently.
