	Austin
		Austin, on Chicago's western border, evolved from a country village to a dense urban neighborhood between 1870 and 1920.
		Austin had three important early influences: its founder, Henry Austin (also instrumental in Oak Park's development); transit lines, notably the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad and the Lake Street Elevated; and a rivalry with neighboring Oak Park.
		By 1920 Austin was one of Chicago's best-served commuter areas, with street railways to downtown Chicago every half mile, the busiest being the Madison Street “Green Hornet.” The area was also served by the Lake Street “L” rapid transit.

		I realize that the reason Austin can use all these bargain basement techniques is because of the lowridership and lack of interest, but it makes me wonder if something like that would work in Chicago.
		It just seems like the Austin set up is more benevolent and looks out for people; and by people I mean the one's that live there, not just the ones vacationing there.

	Hope replaces hype in Austin Chicago Sun-Times - Find Articles
		AUSTIN, Texas--Refresh-ingly free of major-label hype and big- budget marketing scams, the 16th annual South By Southwest Music & Media Conference feels a lot like the early days of this festival, when the emphasis was on smaller bands, local scenes and the Do-It- Yourself aesthetic.
		But while the conference has always been a joy for hard-core music lovers (including hundreds of Chicago fans who travel south for their version of spring break), more than ever the focus is on the music rather than the music business.
		It was a statement likely to be echoed throughout the festival, and it was voiced in a different way on Wednesday night by Pete Wertz, the bassist-vocalist of the Chicago quartet Fall Out Boy, which scheduled a coveted gig showcasing at SXSW as part of a national D.I.Y. van tour.

		One primary difference: Austin got annexed (against its wishes) to Chicago in the late 1800s, and Oak Park did not.
		Although more than a hundred years later, Austin retains elegant architecture from the Victorian era as well as many gracious structures from the early 20th Century, areas in the neighborhood have since fallen into economic decline.
