University of Texas System to build $102 million headquarters downtown By Ralph K.M. Haurwitz Austin American Statesman February 27, 2014 Quote:
More from the Austin Business Journal UT plans $102 million office building; architects and builders solicited By Jan Buchholz Austin Business Journal February 27, 2014 |
Cool. I'm looking forward to seeing the renderings. The Business Journal article says 9 floors, while the Statesman reported 15 floors.

I hope it'll be 15 floors. A 15-story office building with above ground parking would likely be around 200 feet.
Anyway, keep an eye on the Colorado Building. Once they start emptying it out and demolishing it we should see this move forward. |

After the Seaholm power plant, which we already lost to office space, this would be my second choice for a historic building with a large potential for public use. Walk by, or sit at the fountain, and think what this hundred year old post office has to offer. It just screams "museum" to me. |

This describes the building better. = 15 floors
"The new nine-story building with six parking levels will provide more than 258,000 square feet of office space, with about 200,000 square feet for immediate use by UT System and the remaining square footage available for lease, including retail. The building will include a parking garage for 650-700 cars and space for more than 700 employees, including UT System staff, office tenants, and retail tenants on the ground floor." https://www.utsystem.edu/news/2014/0...illions-annual This will be right out the window of the coworker across from me. |

Wow, a 15-story building just doesn't much discussion these days... :)

Fall Groundbreaking
Just a few updates that I have:
- Demolition is slated to begin in the next month or so - Construction is likely to begin this fall or Q1 2015 at the latest with an early 2017 opening - I'm not allowed to post the final rendering, but they added multiple floors to the building, so it will be a bit more than 15 stories - The building isn't architecturally extravagant or anything, but it's not butt ugly either and is good infill in my opinion. It uses a good deal of glass and will have ground retail - Height wise, it appears to be taller than the building Travis County has on Lavaca across the street (which is 210ft. according to Wikipedia) |
Good to hear. They're getting their Right-of-Way permits for the construction barricades and pedestrian walkways.
