Fry's Icon Austin, TX

Exterior

Opened: 2001

Address: 12707 N. Mopac Expy

Theme: Live Music

The Austin store embraced the city's identity as the "Live Music Capital of the World" with a live music theme. Its most notable feature was the exterior, which resembled a giant grand piano. Inside, key features included: neon sheet music lines decorating the walls, historical photos of iconic performers and Austin-based artists, and, at one point, a player piano stationed near the cafe.
