The Riley is a customizable urban banquet hall venue located in Austin, Texas. This establishment?s current story began with Thomas C. Calhoon?s real estate ventures that began back in 1976. After purchasing and maintaining two properties from a young age, Thomas bought what is now The Riley in 1998. Through agreements with his business partner, the building was transformed through trade, producing the number one and two Peyton Riley. The nomenclature was derived from Thomas? daughter and the two purchased spaces combine to form The Riley.
