South Lamar, or "SoLa", may still be quieter than South Congress ("SoCo"), but it's undergoing a similar transformation. Trendy eateries, bars, boutiques, and galleries have opened all along South Lamar Boulevard, and property in this once "gritty" area is booming.
South Lamar's popularity is due to its friendly, offbeat culture; its affordability; and its central location. The neighborhood is within 10 minutes of Austin's city center. Attractive Lady Bird Park, with its miles of hiking and biking trails, is just around the corner, and both Zilker Park and Barton Spring Pools are nearby.
South Lamar homes range from affordable, single-family homes and apartments to more luxurious, modern duplexes and condos.
South Lamar is developing rapidly, but it's still home to many authentic old buildings, including a number of Austin's most historic bars and clubs. Among these is the Broken Spoke, a dance hall that saw performances from the likes of Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, the Dixie Chicks, and George Strait. Today the Broken Spoke still offers live music every night.
The South Lamar community also still boasts a unique Austin culture, very much in keeping with the "Keep Austin Weird" slogan.
