Directly off the entrance to 600 Congress is a small shop positioned ideally to take advantage of the building’s existing foot traffic and also gain the attention from the folks outside. Sixth Street and Congress Avenue are the main intersection of Austin’s walkable, bikeable metropolis. It is Mecca for creative tech with an outsized music and food scene. The shop is ready to be a part of this thriving community. It has built-in shelves and refrigerators, perfect for a newsstand/cafe along with abundant natural light and space for seating.
Over 100 Austin venues activate all along 6th and Congress St during SXSW. But even during the rest of the year, music and art play out regularly among locals and tourist alike. Downtown Austin has seen a rise in condominiums in the urban core. Young professionals and families often stay downtown on weekends, after all the Colorado River and Parks are only a brisk walk away.
Forbes magazine ranked Austin America’s #1 Fastest Growing City, which is evidenced in some the entrepreneurial tenants - WeWork, General Assembly, Facebook (a block west). This 1 mile radius of Austin is home base to many tech companies. Following the “Keep Austin Weird” ethos, Austinites are just as likely to be attending a tech lecture as a punk rock performance.
There is no direct access to the shop from the street, so large signs and charming window displays would encourage more visitors.
