The Northern half of the Rainey District. ;) And only two of those have not yet broken ground.
|
It’s like a whole new city!

Love how the city is transforming and can't wait to see what the city's skyline will metamorph(is that a word lol) into in coming years. |
What north American city not named Chicago or NYC has had the kind of transformation that Austin is going through right now in such a short amount of time? Seattle? Miami?

Edit: that stupid emoji was not intentional. I'm posting through my smart phone. But there's nothing smart about this dumb phone. I hope I don't come off as snarky, or anything. |
Is it not possible for both cities to be undergoing a mind boggling skyline transformation?
|
NO! One must always win, one must always lose. One is GREAT! One is GARBAGE!

Block 185
Lighting at night. This building is nearly complete. Quote:

This is why social media and most online platforms are stupid. One can't ask a basic question without coming off as incendiary to someone. I wasn't in any way disparaging a city. I was simply asking for an objective response. This is dumb.
"You hurt my city's feelings. You said it doesn't have that many buildings being built." Do you guys not see how dumb that sounds? |

Put another way, I assumed we were talking about which skylines will look most different, compared to what they look like now, just a few years from now. In that respect, I predict Nashville will be #1. |
Okie Dokie. Back on track...
Block 16 has a new design! https://austin.towers.net/wp-content...8758172686.jpg SOURCE: https://austin.towers.net/block-16-o...wntown-austin/ |
Nice!
|
Agree!
|
That's pretty slick. I like it.

Same here. Have never seen a design anything like this.
|
Same here in addition to the exposed column patterns. Hopefully the columns will have exterior lighting features.
Has the height changed? |
Nice looking building! Seems the quality of proposals in Austin is continuing to improve.
|
I love how Block 16's exposed columns reflect those of 98 Red River. It will look really cool.

The surface lot on the site closes next Monday, and right of way closures for construction begin the following Monday for the 710' Republic Tower.

Not long ago, downtown wasn't visible from my neighborhood even though we're less than 5 miles from the north edge of downtown. Currently, though, downtown is visible from many locations in my neighborhood, including Burnet Rd and Balcones Dr. I can see it very clearly from my rooftop, at least during the winter when the trees are bare, and the buildings look surprisingly close, I guess because they're so tall.

Getting tall!

New high-rise proposal stirring up controversy as it’ll take out some old structures on a stretch that holds Austin’s queer culture.

Ha! "That's higher than Snoop Dogg!"

Funny video! Like the diagrams to show future skyline!
|
The Republic Tower is underway and has a major pre-lease. But the developer is not saying who it is.

Probably worth noting that the Moody Center just opened after years of construction. We'll be seeing many shows and events here in the coming years.

Matthew McConaughey's speech/sing-a-long to open it up is pretty hilarious. "Let's bless the Mood!"

I updated the Austin Tallest Projects List:
https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/sho...05&postcount=6 There are at least 53 tower projects over 300'. Of those, 30 are over 400', 20 are over 500' and 11 are over 600'. Hopefully the supertall at #1 will get a green highlight on the next update. There are also 10-12 other projects that will make the list once we get public info on the height. |
Wow! Nice work on the list.
