Waco straddles Interstate 35 in Central Texas, making it a natural pit stop between Dallas and Austin. The city connects north to DFW via I-35 in about 90 minutes, south to Austin in under two hours, and east-west along Highway 84. Waco Regional Airport sits 7 miles northwest of downtown. The standout landmark is Baylor University's Pat Neff Hall, whose 103-foot limestone tower has welcomed travelers along I-35 since 1939.
