I like it. It reminds me of the canceled 21C tower that was proposed about a decade ago.
This would be the highest roof in downtown east of Congress. Only the spire on the Fairmont Hotel would be higher. |
I'm curious what the prices will be for the range of 25-35 floors.
More towers like this are needed, only with an affordable component. Place like Austin is hot, but I'd imagine the prices will deter folks. Make this tower exclusive in nature, even with 330 units. Still leagues better than a cookie-cutter community. That's 330 less houses taking up way too much land and being mundane. |
Still, though, the suburbs are KILLING it with more housing.
There's a housing project being planned in East Austin about 8 miles from downtown, and they're planning 12,000 houses and apartments, plus over 2 million square feet of commercial space. https://www.statesman.com/news/20181...county?start=2 |

Austin appears to be a great city, but its architecture is incredibly lame.
Houston appears to develop the best buildings in Texas by far. |

Dallas is by far the best for Texas :haha: |
Site plan was posted to AULCC page, but the elevations are on page 50, and this only goes to page 16.
On page 5, it lists the height as 582 feet. Gross square feet is 592,249 feet with 334 units and 553 parking spaces. ftp://ftp.ci.austin.tx.us/ATD_AULCC/...SU_PLAN_01.pdf |

The American Statesman has an article on this stating that construction will begin next month.
GROWING RAINEY: Work soon to start on 44 East Ave., the Rainey Street district’s newest high-rise https://www.statesman.com/news/20190...west-high-rise This area of downtown is going to have a handful of 50+ story towers in the next few years. There are at least 6 towers ranging from 50 to 60 floors in this area in various stages of development. |
The developer announced today that the project has financing through the Bank of Montreal. So this one will be starting as soon as it gets permitted.
|
- Height decrease to 573' ft/50 floors
- Interior demo underway |
I really hope they don't VE that podium... Would be one of the few interesting ones in the city
