The history of East 6th Street
Sixth Street is a historic street and entertainment district in Austin, Texas. It is located within the city's urban core in Downtown Austin. Sixth Street was formerly named Pecan Street under Austin's older naming convention, which had east-west streets named after trees and north-south streets named after Texas rivers (the latter convention remains in place). The nine-block area of East Sixth Street roughly between Lavaca Street to the west and Interstate 35 to the east is recognized as the Sixth Street Historic District and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on December 30, 1975. Developed as one of Austin's trade and commercial districts in the late 1800s, the predominant building style are two or three-story masonry Victorian commercial architecture. Most structures in the area had already been built by the 1880s, though there are a few notable exceptions such as the Driskill Hotel (1886), the Scarbrough Building (1910) and the Littlefield Building.
