Of the eight towers on the hill west of Austin, KXAN's tower is the tallest; it is also the tallest structure in Austin.
In addition to KXAN-TV antenna, the mast incorporates a camera with views of downtown to the east and the hills to the west.

“Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks!
