Close proximity to the interstate and to Highway 1, which provides a nearly direct route into Austin, is one of the major draws of the Austin Addition neighborhood, but it isn’t all that this community has to offer.

Finally, the Dell Diamond, home of the Round Rock Express minor league baseball team, can be found here as well.
