Austin, TX

The story

Penny Grossman and family began running Sam’s Town Point in 1981, when this stretch of South Austin felt farther from town. Musician Ramsay Midwood later helped develop it into a gathering place for artists and bands, with Western swing, steel guitar, blues, and his own shows sharing the rooms.
