This tour seeks to honor the important history and legacy of the Mexican American community in East Austin. The sites covered here scratch only the surface of the people and places that make up this rich cultural past and present. It is also important to note that the Mexican American community's impact on Austin is extensive and reaches beyond East Austin, including areas south of Lady Bird Lake such as Bouldin Creek and Montopolis.
