Vantage point in Austin, Texas for photos?

score:2

Accepted answer

Have you tried University of Texas' Observation Deck.

It's not free but not even in the range of Empire state building or Rockefeller Center. You can also see the virtual tour of the tower and the views on their website as well.

Plus it also has some history though pretty gruesome.

The UT Tower and the Frost Bank building are the tallest structures in Austin; It helps preserve the smaller town feel. I thoroughly explored the city in my time as a college student. I highly recommend the FREE Highway 360 bridge and Mount Bonnell. As far as skyline views, a secret FREE spot is the campus of St. Edwards University on South Lamar (15-20 min drive south of downtown). It's built on a hill so you can see the entire skyline.

View their flickr searches to see what I mean.
