If build, it will rank 5th in Austins tallest. Beating the "Spring" at 434 ft.
|
Yeah, today it would be our 5th tallest. But with everything we know of that is proposed it could eventually be our 9th tallest. Which is nuts, because before 2000 we had no buildings over 400 feet. Now we have 7 completed, one more topped out and another one under construction, plus 9 more that are proposed.
|
Google needs to update, that image is missing a lot of buildings.
|
Excellent!!! Keep building towers in this area so it may fill in.
|
The local media is covering it now.

This says the building will be 448 feet tall with 39 floors. The city hasn't approved their site plan yet, so construction likely won't happen until that does. Plus, we should be able to see all the official heights with that.

The site plan was approved and released today with the heights. Also a drilling truck was spotted on the lot today.
The building elevations are files 034 and 035. https://www.austintexas.gov/devrevie...erRSN=11056288 458 feet 9 inches to mechanical penthouse roof. 435 feet 6 inches to main roof. 422 feet to the highest occupied floor (39th floor). 61 feet 9 inches to the 6th floor podium. Those numbers are the ones measured from the southwest corner of the building at West Avenue and West 5th Street. |
Demolition has begun at the site.

We can't have a 5th & West thread without the best rendering:

The building has a website now with drone aerials of what the views will look like.
http://www.5thandwest.com/ Also, demolition of the existing building is complete, and now they're removing the debris. The video clip in the link shows the site. http://austin.twcnews.com/content/ne...-fifth-street/ Quote:

I like this one. It reminds me of a smaller, glassier, residential version of Houston's Fulbright Tower.

Still digging. The site is small so they're having some logistical issues since they have to load the trucks at street level one by one.

Tower crane came down last week.

The Austin skyline is massive. I sent a photo of it to a friend who moved to Florida about 15 years ago. He's still doubting that it's really Austin.
