There is an area in downtown Austin called Waller Creek where many of the homeless gather. Waller Creek is subject to flooding during heavy storms. The City of Austin has <a href=\"https:\/\/waterloogreenway.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">funded improvements<\/a> to Waller Creek in order to mitigate flooding and transform the area into an urban park. Many of the tunnels there are being widened and improved.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, I decided to\u00a0shoot some photographs downtown for a photography\u00a0assignment following lunch at a sandwich shop and prior to a sporting event. The Waller Creek tunnels were part of my list of subjects\u00a0to shoot. I was especially interested in seeing the improvements made by the city. I was disappointed that little work had been done in the area. I ventured into one of the tunnels when I encountered a homeless lady in a wheelchair. Assuming she was hungry, it seemed appropriate to offer her half of a\u00a0sandwich that I purchased for\u00a0lunch. She accepted it graciously.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4833\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4833\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/20150221-Waller-Creek-Austin-AG.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4833\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2015\/11\/tunnel\/waller-creek-homeless\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/20150221-Waller-Creek-Austin-AG.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1002\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
