He's being realistic this is san antonio. The apartments near I10/huebner that are 8 stories got marketed as "highrise living" yet its technically not a highrise.

And there are no buildings of substantial size anywhere along the I10/1604 corridor or along the 281/1604 corridor. Height would have to be worked up...You can't just smack down a 30 story building where there aren't even any 10 story buildings. So this building will probably be between 8-12 stories. Thats better than nothing though.

Oh i did forget about the one official highrise being built..Talavara at the Rim. Oh and the 10 story drury inn at 1604/I10. If anything that area has a better chance of seeing a true highrise first before the 281/1604 area.
