A Groundbreaking Moment for Colony Park
Mere feet from the construction site of the forthcoming Colony Park Health & Wellness Center lies a stop sign and two new streets, named after the original change-makers of Colony Park: Barbara Scott Plaza and Helen Miller View.
Five decades ago, two of the neighborhood’s first residents made their homes in this Northeast Austin community and worked toward a better future as members of the Colony Park Neighborhood Association.
Healing One Brushstroke at a Time
There was a time in Armando Vences’ life when all he cared about was drinking. Then alcoholism ruined his work and destroyed his most important relationships. He lost his house. Eventually, it came for his health, too. One day he found himself covered in blood on the floor. When he woke up next, he was in the hospital.
