Downtown Austin Cooling Center Serves Thousands with Hottest Temperatures in Sight
Our pals over at KXAN have the scoop on how The Trinity Center’s turning up the A/C for good folks needing a break from our sizzling Texas sun. Located at the heart of our downtown hustle at 304 E.

With over 2,000 served since July and daily foot traffic of 300 to 350, it’s clear this spot’s hotter than a Lonestar patio in July.
