After losing a few weeks due to the high water in the river they are making progress on the bridge support columns.  They should be ready to start setting the rest of the trusses this fall.

Looks like part of the whitewater flume is under construction?

Hope they do different lighting around the holidays.  I like the blue they have been tested the best.

Think Crossland will finish up their work along the east bank before Labor Day?  2.5 months out and there is still a lot of hardscape and landscaping work to be finished.  It will be so nice having that chain link fence finally gone along the trail.

Its the same company that did the excellent lighting at the Gathering Place, so they have a clue as to environmentally-friendly lighting. 
LED colors are striking, and the blue is vibrant, but the blues and greens are the colors they should use very sparingly.

For ambience, nature better tolerates amber (sometimes referred to as "turtle-friendly" but easy on human eyes, too.
Its also the color the county should have used to light the GOLDEN driller, but I digress....

With the green lights, it would certainly be a great location if they do another Matrix movie.

I think next summer the lake will have a lot more kayaks and SUP as people get used to being able to use the river for recreation.  Also, the river bank construction will be complete and Daigoro will be open in the old Sandbar spot so you can kayak up to the beach there and get some Asian food.

Likely not until they figure out a way for the water to be cleaner.  It's better than it has been, but has some way to go (IMO).

Not really any different than the area lakes except after heavy rains when urban runoff into the lake will cause a spike.  Austin has similar E Coli issues at Lady Bird Lake and it doesn’t stop the kayakers and SUP there.

We live in a state that has let oil companies do whatever they want for 100 years. I don't get why people are mad at the city. They didn't cause that bs. They are monitoring and reporting levels. They said from the beginning its not for swimming but for boating and whatever you can do in the flume on top of something, not soaking in it for long periods of time. Take your complaints to OKC where they'll call you a bunch of political bad words.
