Dear Free Zilkers, we fought this and lost. The Hill Country Conservancy won a huge contracting deal to build a big pavilion, as if the trailhead needed that. We are so sorry and, as always, we will try to prevent this sort of boondoggle on parkland.
Just east of Barton Springs Pool, in the once-beautiful meadow at the start of the Barton Creek Trail, lies this construction boondoggle.
