It’s a Two-Way Riverfront Construction Zone in La Grange

On Business 71 through La Grange, motorists can watch massive construction projects on both sides of road near the Colorado River.

That clinic is being built elevated above ground level (with parking below) because that area has been known to flood (see Hurricane Harvey, 2017). Photos by Jeff Wick
