About New Braunfels
The SECOND of our New Braunfels office locations, this brand new Legacy location is located conveniently off Loop 337 and Oak Run Parkway in a beautiful new office complex recent completed. As this once “small town” community continues to grow, New Braunfels has become a “hot spot” for those who commute to and from both the Austin and San Antonio metroplex areas. The area offers superb, recognized schools, a plethora of shopping and dining, live music, history and culture like no other along with the ability to feel like you are in the country without being TOO FAR outside “the city.”
On a summer day you’ll find streets packed with tourist and tubers, bakery and boutique lovers, live music fans and much more. The well known German beer festival, Wurstfest, is also held each fall in New Braunfels. The city has grown and flourished for years as a great “mid-point” city between Austin and San Antonio.
