Alamo survivor's Austin home gets new life (AP)

From the Associated Press through USA Today:

The home is "symbolic of (Susanna Dickinson's) triumph" in downtown Austin building is little more than a shell, with dirt floors, crumbling walls and missing windows. But work is to begin this month on a $500,000 renovation that will fix those problems and add electricity to the 140-year-old stone home, the Austin American-Statesman has reported.
