Old Austin Music Store Makes Way for Luxe Living

Pour one out for Strait Music Company’s flagship store—after decades of selling guitars and memories, it’s being replaced by swanky apartments with a pool and coffee bar. The shift? Another slice of Old Austin gets traded for high-end living, showing how rising rents and city growth keep pushing out local icons. But don’t worry, music lovers: Strait Music is still rocking at two other Austin spots, so you can still snag your first guitar (or just reminisce about your band days). #Business #AustinLife #LocalBusiness
