the tallest in all of Central Texas, said Nicholas. Nicholas said the P ugerville location in particu- lar gives the business an opportunity to better serve its Be Empowered To Ascend program. What’s special about it? The center creates the perfect setting for an all-day retreat with work-from-home spaces, locker rooms, saunas, a lounge space, a tness studio, a Spicy Boys Fried Chicken food truck and a soon-to- open Spokesman Co ee shop.
Since the rst Crux location opened in South Aus- tin in 2016, co-owner Grace Nicholas said the Austin metro climbing community has been requesting a center in North Austin. Nicholas said the center had over 700 check-ins on the rst day of its soft opening in September. She said the center’s main focus is highlighting inclusivity in the climbing community. “We really want everybody to be able to come in and have a route they can do like o the couch,” Nicholas said.
