Austin Neighborhood on Facebook

There has been a resurgence of interest in the Austin neighborhood.  At least three unique Facebook pages post stories, photos and archival newspaper articles, all focused on Austin's history.  St. Thomas Aquinas is mentioned on occasion, but venues from the Rockne Theater to Columbus Park to the Town Hall Library are also represented.  It is fun reading the comments members make about these locations of our past.  If you are on Facebook, consider joining one or all of these --you surely will be taking a walk down memory lane if you do.  Also be sure to check out each page's historical photos as well as looking at each site's "Wall."
