A detailed daytime rendering of Austin's proposed I-35 development, showcasing a vibrant, reimagined urban landscape. In the foreground, a modern, two-story wooden structure features rooftop seating areas filled with people. Behind it, a large grassy park is lined with trees and paths, where people are walking and playing. The highway runs through the center, and adjacent to it, another building is topped with a colorful grid-like structure resembling solar panels. The downtown Austin skyline looms in the background, with tall buildings including the Hilton Garden Inn, adding a mix of green space and urban density. The scene reflects a progressive vision for the city's infrastructure with integrated public spaces and modern architecture.
