70 Rainey - 472 feet - 35 floors - site prep
Site prep is underway for 70 Rainey. This will eventually be Austin's 7th tallest.

I'm really excited about 70 Rainey, it's going to help fill the gap there.
You know I've been thinking about when this current building boom began. We have had multiple cranes continuously on the skyline for how many years now? It does not look like that will change anytime soon. |
Frost came in, what, 2004? I'd like to think that it started shortly after that. Frost preceded the boom a bit, in my mind. Kevin or someone else could probably give a more precise answer though.

I feel the Nokonah and Frost kinda led the current building boom with a small break following, but since 360 went up in 2008 it has been non-stop.

The Avenue looks great. Will extend the skyline further north.
The student housing project looks pretty good... for a prison. |

Also I'm bumping this thread up. It seems to become inactive a lot. |
That's because it's mostly our "public face"; used mostly for project announcements.
I like the student housing building, whatever its name is. It's busy and I like that. And school is supposed to be a little prisony. For The Avenue. I can't help but imagine what it will all look like when both it and Aloft are done. Congress Ave is getting in the development game. It's going to be a pretty interesting street with a canyon effect. As an Austin native, I can't help but get a sense that Austin is turning into an actual city. I know that may sound ridiculous to some but I think many Austinites still feel a sense of inadequacy (that we're not a big city) but that's changing, one development at a time. |
Crane is up for The Independent.

Nice! And I see the "art wall" stretches all the way around the power station now.
On the other side of downtown, The Fairmont is making crazy progress. It has an imposing physical presence now; impossible to ignore. The glass is going up on the top section and the base is building up. |
Wow the Avenue looks like an awesome tower and it's going to be really skinny on that lot. I was afraid that they would be tearing down something historic for it but the building that's there now looks like a 1940s single story terd so that's good.

Is it just me...?
Or does this look a hot mess to you too?
