Crane over phase II of the the new Oracle Building in SE Austin.
The Austin skyline from east Austin. That's Snake Island (according to google maps) in the lower right. Also called “Hobo Island,” the small 2,000-square-foot landmass has no official signage or landing area, according to atlas obscura web site. The City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department doesn’t acknowledge it as a site of interest. It’s just there. In the middle of everything and few people, aside from some seasoned kayakers and fishers, seem to know it, says atlas obscura.
