Yeah, no dinky canopy here. Unless I'm mistaken, because I don't get out much, that is very unique for Austin. Looks very big league.

I guess you can only stay there if you drive an Audi? Sorry for the giant picture. I linked directly to their website because I'm lazy.

^And they're all from New York. Did they all drive down together???

The ATX · #**264** Posted **Jul 2, 2018, 7:47 PM**

Apparently that's what all the cool people will be driving in 2020.

Audi Owners Convention with one Texas Marine, One proud NYer, one Lesbian NYer and someone from what looks like Europe.

Lol this is hilarious

Is that Cindy Crawford on the far right? Also, it looks like Anderson Cooper is having a conversation with Drew Barrymore in the middle there. And that has to be Simon Cowell. He's only got the one black t-shirt.

TXLove · #**270** Posted **Jul 3, 2018, 1:14 AM**

The one from New York is already convinced he has a "Great Plate"

the Genral · #**271** Posted **Jul 3, 2018, 1:31 AM**

Just walked by it 20 min ago. They're still plugging away. Excavating at the moment, but no tower crane yet.

The White Lodging folks are still selling it for group business in summer of 2020, and that's stayed consistent for several months now. I assume everything's on target.

The ATX · #**274** Posted **Jul 27, 2018, 3:51 AM**

The crane installation is still planned for this weekend, and the permit expires Sunday.

They are letting us know that this Marriott will be "THE Marriott" to see and be seen at...

But seriously, I did see Anderson Cooper a few months back out on Congress Ave. with a friend. Walked right next to him too.

What about this guy in the rendering?

Isn't that Zac Efron?

I wish the construction camera for this property would come back online. It was cool seeing the progress from above. I don’t live in Austin either so I can’t really see what’s up unless it’s in pictures.

Yea like I said, they are planning to make this the Marriott that all the superstars and celebrities are going to stay at. In fact if you don't have a car that is worth 40K or more, you won't even be allowed to drive up to the entrance...
