Oak Hills Country Club

Oak Hills Country Club is a private golf club in the southern United States, located in San Antonio, Texas. Northwest of downtown, it was founded 105 years ago in 1921 as the "Alamo Country Club." Designed by renowned architect A.W. Tillinghast, the golf course opened for member play in 1922. Closed during the Great Depression, it reopened in 1946 as Oak Hills Country Club. Oak Hills has hosted a number of PGA Tour events. The inaugural Tour Championship in 1987 at Oak Hills was won by Tom Watson with a birdie on the 72nd hole; the 6-iron used for the approach shot hangs in the pro shop. The tour's Texas Open was held at the course twenty-three times between 1961–1994, and the AT&T Championship on the Champions Tour nine times (2002–2010). It also hosted the U.S. Junior Amateur Golf Championship in 2001. The course record at Oak Hills is 60, shot twice, once in 1992 by David Ogrin in the Texas Open pro-am with nines of 26–34, and Anthony Rodriguez in 2008 in a recreational but witnessed game. Oak Hills has had several touring pros as members and boasts one of the best golfing memberships in the country with it being typical for 30 or more members being scratch or better at any given time. Its golf course is known as an architectural gem and, as such, was a beloved stop for both PGA and Champions Tour players. It was consistently ranked as the #1 course in the San Antonio area for many years with its small greens and notoriously deep Tillinghast bunkers. Many players have publicly lamented the departure of professional golf from this venue. References External links Official website

Plano station (Texas Electric Railway)

Plano Station, Texas Electric Railway, now known as the Interurban Railway Museum, is a historic train station at 901 E 15th Street in Plano, Texas. It is still served by the Downtown Plano station of the Dallas Area Rapid Transit light rail, which reutilized the right of way of the interurban. The Mission Revival/Spanish Revival style station was completed in 1908 at the opening of the Texas Electric Railway. The railway operated from 1908 to 1948. The station stood vacant until the City of Plano renovated it into the Interurban Railway Museum in 1990. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 10, 2005. The museum also displays Car 360, a restored railcar of the Texas Electric Railway, on the grounds. Management The Plano Conservancy for Historic Preservation, Inc. has managed the Interurban Railway Museum since 2001 in partnership with the City of Plano. In an agreement with the City of Plano, the Plano Conservancy was allowed to operate the Museum in exchange for office space. During the first year of operation, the Plano Conservancy established enough credibility to receive funding under the hotel/motel tax provisions of the City of Plano.

Reverchon Park

Reverchon Park is a public park in the Oak Lawn area of Dallas, Texas. It was named for the French botanist Julien Reverchon. The park lies along Turtle Creek, a tributary of the Trinity River. Its main entrance is at Maple Avenue and Turtle Creek Boulevard. History Built in 1915, Reverchon Park is one of the oldest parks in the city. First named Turtle Creek Park, it was renamed Reverchon Park after Julien Reverchon (1837–1905), a botanist and a member of the La Reunion Utopian Community. In the 80s and 90s, the park was notoriously crime-ridden, but a rejuvenation project beginning in 1998 helped turn Reverchon into one of Dallas' most successful parks, according to The Dallas Morning News. The Southern Methodist University baseball team played at the ballpark from 1977 to 1980, before the baseball program disbanded after the 1980 season. Features Reverchon Park is 46 acres (0.19 km2) in area, and offers around 40 leisure and recreational program for citizens, including health screenings, tutoring, athletic leagues, yoga, volleyball, and after-school programs. The park also is home to baseball fields, basketball courts, and tennis courts. A playground in the park, accessible to children of all abilities, was designed by the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital, the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, and the City of Dallas. A section of the Katy Trail, a recreational rail trail, runs adjacent to the park. It connects to parks of the Trinity River Project. Ballpark Reverchon Park includes a 3,500-capacity 1920s-era ballpark used for high-school and amateur baseball teams. It was the home field for Southern Methodist University baseball from 1977 to 1980. In July 2018, plans were announced for a new multi-purpose stadium in the park to host a Dallas franchise in the independent Southwest League of Professional Baseball, as well as local high school playoff games, amateur baseball leagues, and the Mexican Baseball League. With the Southwest League never playing a game, in January 2020 the Dallas City Council approved a renovation proposal from a group led by Dallas Mavericks general manager Donnie Nelson who was also an owner of the Texas AirHogs of the independent American Association. The $10 million plan included new seating, artificial turf, locker rooms, dugouts, and concessions and restrooms facilities, all to accommodate professional and amateur baseball, soccer, lacrosse, concerts and rugby. In October 2020, the plan was reported to be dead when the group led by Nelson failed to submit documentation before a September 30 deadline.

Scholz Garten

Scholz Garten (also known as Scholz Beer Garden) is a beer garden and restaurant in downtown Austin, Texas and one of the oldest operating businesses in Texas. Among the Texas businesses that predate Scholz Garten are the Daily News in Galveston (1842), the Excelsior Hotel in Jefferson (1858), the Menger Hotel in San Antonio (1859), and Imperial Sugar in Sugar Land (1842). Established by German immigrant August Scholz in 1866 after the American Civil War, Scholz Garten became a hub for German immigrants and their culture in the capital city. It was purchased by The Austin Saengerrunde in 1914, who still owns it today. It remains a popular gathering spot for both political discussion and University of Texas sports events. Scholz purchased the lot at 1607 San Jacinto Boulevard in 1862 for about $2,400. In 1908, Austin Saengerrunde added a new hall with a six-lane bowling alley located behind Scholz Garten. The venue closed during Prohibition and reopened afterward; the vintage bowling alley remains in use today as one of the oldest continuously operating centers in the United States. Scholz Garten was recorded as a Texas Historic Landmark in 1967, and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. The business lease was purchased in 1986 by Eddie Wilson (founder of the Armadillo World Headquarters and Threadgill's), Phil Vitek, and Michael Osborne who restored it in 1987.

Tandy Hills Natural Area

Tandy Hills Natural Area (THNA) is a 210-acre (0.85 km2) indigenous remnant prairie located in Fort Worth, Texas. The land was obtained by the City of Fort Worth in 1960 and designated a natural area in 1987. Noted for its unusually complete collection of prairie flora, THNA contains more than 1200 native species. The show of spring wildflowers is unsurpassed in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The land is a living demonstration of how most of Fort Worth appeared in predevelopment times. Tandy Hills is adjacent to Interstate 30 and less than 5 miles from Downtown Fort Worth. The fact that it has never been developed and survived into the 21st century in relatively pristine condition is remarkable. In June 2020, the city of Fort Worth purchased 50+ acres of land adjacent to Tandy Hills dubbed "Broadcast Hill," for $610,000. The Friends of Tandy Hills Natural Area, a non-profit organization, contributed more than $64,000 to the purchase from their Broadcast Hill fundraising drive. The addition of Broadcast Hill makes Tandy Hills one of the largest urban open space areas in the nation.

Trinity Mills station

Trinity Mills station is a train station in Carrollton, Texas. It serves DART rail's Green Line and DCTA's A-train hybrid rail line. It is the southern terminus of the latter. On A-train maps, the station is represented by a yellow circle containing the DART logo. The station is located at the intersection of Interstate 35E and the President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT). It is named for Trinity Mills Road, a frontage road for PGBT, which in turn is named after a mid-19th century settlement that was later annexed by Carrollton. History North Carrollton Transit Center North Carrollton Transit Center, located about 1⁄3 mile (0.54 km) east of the current station on Dickerson Parkway, opened on October 31, 1988. The transit center featured four bus bays and 1,047 parking spaces. It was one of the first DART stations with an indoor waiting facility, along with South Irving Transit Center. The facility was serviced by several bus routes, most notably an express route between it and Downtown Dallas. When Trinity Mills opened, the express route was discontinued in favor of the Green Line, and all other routes were moved to Trinity Mills. The structure was demolished in 2016 during a widening of Dickerson Parkway. Trinity Mills In 2000, DART released an investment study on the "Northwest Corridor", which includes the present-day northern segments of the Green Line and Orange Line. The proposal included three stations in Carrolton, including one at North Carrollton Transit Center. In 2002, the City of Carrollton proposed names for the three Carrollton stations on the corridor. The proposal named the station adjacent to North Carrollton Transit Center "Trinity Mills", moving the "North Carrollton" name to the terminus. This was done to ensure that "Carrollton" would appear on the train's destination signs. In 2007, DART officials broke ground on the Green Line in Carrollton. In late October 2010, DART offered a preview run of the Green Line, which ran between Downtown Carrollton and Trinity Mills, during the first annual Festival at the Switchyard. A month and a half later, on December 6, 2010, the Green Line's second expansion, including Trinity Mills, opened. A-Train service began June 20, 2011 with a ceremonial ride from Downtown Denton Transit Center to Trinity Mills. Development In 2003, Carrollton purchased a 12.5-acre (5.1 ha) site adjacent to Trinity Mills for the purposes of future development. In 2020, Carrollton announced the creation of Trinity Mills Station, a transit-oriented development zone in a 25-acre (10 ha) site adjacent to the DART station.

Union Building (University of Texas at Austin)

The Union Building (also known the Texas Union Building or Student Union Building) is a building on the University of Texas at Austin campus, serving as a "college independent community center" or "living room" for students. Designed by Paul Cret, who also designed the Tower and Main Building, Goldsmith Hall and Texas Memorial Museum on the same campus, the Union was built in 1933 with funds provided by Texas Exes in a campaign led by Thomas Watt Gregory. Once constructed, the Union was one of four buildings on campus intended for recreation and entertainment, the other three being Gregory Gymnasium for Men, the Women's Gymnasium and Hogg Memorial Auditorium. The building hosts a bowling alley and formal ballroom. History In March 1930, Paul Cret was contracted to become the consulting architect for the University of Texas, followed by a second contact in June 1931 to design ten new buildings. Construction The Union Building was constructed from smooth limestone and ashlar fossiliferous limestone. The building is staggered and asymmetrical, as opposed to "classically balanced" like Battle Hall, another building Cret designed for the campus. Cactus Café The Cactus Café is a music venue and gathering place for students located in the Union Building, originally known as the Chuck Wagon when it opened in 1933. In January 2010, the university announced plans to close the Cactus, claiming that closing the venue would save the university $66,000 in its $2 billion annual budget. Concerned supporters formed the non-profit organization Friends of the Cactus Café with the purpose of raising funds to preserve the historic venue. An arrangement was eventually made to keep the venue open under the auspices and management of PBS radio station KUT.
