The Neill-Cochran House Museum is considered to be one of Austin’s three most important historic residences. Built in 1855 as a suburban estate, this impressive Greek Revival house has survived war, neglect, and the immense growth of the University of Texas area and the capital city.
Free museum parking is located behind the house, and the driveway is on 23rd street between Leon and San Gabriel. When the lot is full, they recommend the garage at University Towers at 23rd and Pearl.
You can visit the Neill-Cochran House Museum website for more info.
Have fun!
