The Eastin used to move goods, now it moves people. Food, climbing, boutiques and gathering all live together, connected by open walkways, dappled shade, and the kind of space that makes you want to hang around a little longer than planned.

History

Located in East Austin, 979 Springdale spent decades as a mid-century industrial hub, functioning primarily as a complex of food distribution warehouses constructed around the 1960s alongside historic 1920s-era train station structures.

As the neighborhood evolved into a creative corridor, the property underwent an extensive adaptive-reuse transformation designed by Chioco Design. Rather than demolishing the aging mid-century warehouses, the redevelopment preserved their original character—repurposing elements like steel shelving and exposed wood trusses while opening up corridors for natural light and greenery.

Today, the site operates as a vibrant community campus housing local breweries, creative offices, an art gallery, a bouldering gym, and the popular Springdale Station event venue.
