This structure, reminiscent of classic State and National Park architecture, is built on the side of a hill in such a manner that one can walk to it from the concrete Tower Trail" without leaving a level surface. It provides a panoramic view of an area of the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve that replicates the Texas Blackland Prairie.
According to Wikipedia, the actual Texas Blackland Prairies are a temperate grassland ecoregion located in Texas that runs roughly from the Red River in North Texas to San Antonio in the south. More info here: (
