Castle Hill Graffiti Park (2011-2019), Austin, Texas
Graffiti artists at the HOPE Outdoor Gallery on Castle Hill, a graffiti park that was located from 2011 to 2019 at Baylor and 11th St. on the site of a failed condo development project from the Eighties. A new condo project in booming Austin resulted in closure of the site in 2019.
Austin's graffiti artists will have a new, much larger site at which to express themselves in early 2022. Under construction now (July 2021) is a new HOPE Outdoor Gallery graffiti park, located in East Austin across from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The 17-acre, open-air art park will include large scale public art installations, curated audio and art exhibitions, murals from local, national, and international artists.
With a population of just over one million residents, Austin is the 10th largest city in the United States. The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Area, now with a population of 2.3M, also is the fastest growing large metropolitan area in the country having added more than 579,000 residents since 2010.
