BARTON SPRINGS DISTRICT. Austin legend Vaughan, who died tragically in 1990, is remembered here in bronze. The famed Dallas-born guitarist had deep roots in Austin, and this statue has been one of the city's top attractions since it was erected in 1993. On Texas's official Stevie Ray Vaughan Day (his birthday, October 3), you'll find the statue surrounded by flowers and candles.
