Looks to be co-branded as a Holiday Inn Express and Hotel Indigo, the latter of which would be the introduction to the Austin market.

I'm not able to read the elevations because the print is so small, and when I zoom in on it the quality decreases.

Where did you find that? Is there another link?

Heh, the planning commission is a wealth of information. Click on Agendas on the left-hand side. There's no other link that I can see. But there is some other stuff on there, particularly about the Cirrus Logic expansion.

Still doesn't say anything about the height, but it appears it will be between 100-180ft.

Rendering is attractive. It fits the site nicely. Good addition to Red River area.

this whole "it's not a terrible design" stand has GOT TO CHANGE for some new projects. I understand filler, but c'mon. Who is approving these lackluster designs?

I like the design. It doesn't blow me away, though. And obviously I hope it doesn't end up yellow and orange. That would be awful.

Site work has begun at the western end.


Appoligize for the glare. I was trying to avoid the sun light, lol guess it didn't help much.

This is actually 11-stories from the Red River entrance in the rendering.

The building elevations were released - https://www.austintexas.gov/devrevie...erRSN=11003700

They're files 19 through 26. They show it to be 136 feet tall from the corner of 9th & Red River. It's shorter when viewed from the other sides since the elevation increases as you move west. If it were complete today it would be Austin's 121st tallest building.

I hope the lowest parts of the building looks more like the previous rendering than this sign.

I agree completely. The color scheme on the previous rendering and several other details are missing from the current render. The upper floor window arrangement is also different and cheaper looking. I hope they did not do a bit of bait and switch once they realized there would be little opposition to this project. I lack the skills, but maybe somebody could post a side by side comparison of the two renders. Maybe it is not too late for a little SSP input for this project.
