Emmett Shelton Sr. (1905-2000) tells us the story of securing the land for the Dam site in 1938. Emmett and brother Polk ran a tough primary against Lyndon B. Johnson in LBJs first Congressional race. After LBJ was elected in 1938, he made a visit to Emmett and Polk's office. LBJ told Emmett that the new Works Progress Administration (WPA) was planning to rehabilitate all the dams on the Colorado River, including the Austin Dam which had been broken for 28 years. If someone would want to get rich. Emmett talked to a local banker and showed him the 200 acre tract.of land on the western shore where the dam would be built. He offered him part of the acreage for the $3000 price. He didn't want the inaccessible land -- But brother Polk had a collection of diamonds, and he would take them in trade for the financing. Emmett re-sold the property to the City within 6 months of LBJ's election. The WPA and the new Lower Colorado River Authority and the WPA built a series of dams on the river. Finally, in 1940, after 30 years without a dam or a lake, the Tom Miller Dam was operating. Austin was protected from floods and the constant level lake was filling and low cost electricity lit Austin streets., Emmett tells of another deal he worked out for the James tract. That tract would be the future site of the bridge in 1948 -- it opened up West Lake Hills to the City of Austin. #Austinhistory #Emmettshelton #westlakehills For maps and other info check out our Facebook page: Our Westlake Stories told by Emmett Shelton / compiled and submitted by Cynthia Shelton.…

Emmett Shelton Sr. (1905-2000) Original developer of Westlake Hills, tells of a tip Emmett got from LBJ in1938 regarding the upcoming rehabilitation of the dams on the Colorado River. The Austin Dam had been broken for almost 30 years. LBJ advised Emmett of the WPA and plans to renovate the damns all up and down the Colorado River for flood control. Obviously, it would also make the currently flood-proned land, usable and valuable. Emmett tells of his purchase of almost 3,000 acres of the Roy Ranch property. The future of Westlake Hills was set. Note: Emmett had a long-standing relationship with LBJ. He was a few years ahead of LBJ at Southwest Texas State in the '20s.

Emmett represented one such gambler who turned his talent into a legend. Sgt. Posie Hill (future co-owner of Hills Cafe) was an expert dice player in east Austin in the 1930s. In WWII, he was stationed in Honolulu. In one night, he won $30k in a gambling house (2024 value $565,500). When he got back to Austin, Posie used the winnings to partner with Charles Goodnight in Hill's Cafe on South Congress. Posie created a South Austin landmark with his talent.

Emmett Shelton, Sr. (1905-2000) rounds out the Chapter on developing the Westlake Peninsula with a first-hand story of the sale of the 1,000 acre Davenport Ranch in the 1940s. Nobody knew exactly where the boundaries were, but Emmett owned the surrounding ranches. Emmett traces this history back to 1840 when the Walsh family bought it to mine lime. Later, owners harvested cedar. In the 1940s, Emmett took Ms. Davenport out to the property with an asking price of $40 an acre. Ms. D was an oil-heiress from the Valley and the asking price was about one month's royalties. She planned to raise brahma cattle. He pointed out to four corners of the 1,000 acres and she sealed the deal with a little whiskey that day. Ms. D contributed to the colorful nature of Westlake for many years. NOTE: In the 1950s, Ms. Davenport became active in Campaigning for Texas Republicans for Eisenhower. Emmett led the Dems for Eisenhower. Emmett shares several colorful stories about the campaign in our Chapter on Politics.
