Additional Details:
Congress Avenue is one of the principal thoroughfares of the city and radiates from Capitol Hill. It is 120 feet wide, bordered on either side by luxuriant trees, and is crossed by a number of streets 80 feet in width. Austin's broad streets and the fact of their being well shaded help to make the city one of the most picturesque in Texas.
