600'-699' = 2
500'-599' = 8

This does not include:
-99 Red River (office)
-ATX Tower East (residential)
-ATX Tower West (office)

Also...not sure of the scale on Intracorp's new residential proposal for 307 E. 2nd or if Stone Development Group's ~40-story (500'+) office tower will come to fruition.

Just need a 900+ footer to complete the set.

At the pace we are moving it will happen sooner than later! The Austin boom continues!

Indeed!

This should push us ahead of Dallas in terms of height and
Volume.

Just a lowly 900+ footer....that's all. :)

The ATX East Tower should be around 950 feet according to the renderings. Of course, it could be taller or shorter if they change it, but that's the number I feel good going with based on the images of it. The shorter tower - ATX West, looks to be about 650 feet.

I'll do a list later, but yeah, with everything in the pipeline now, we would easily pass Dallas for tallest and the number of 400+ footers. Where Dallas still exceeds is having a TON of 300+ foot buildings all over the city that really adds to their bulk. Uptown/Turtle Creek is full of them, which really adds to the bulk of their central skyline.

Ok cool. Do you think Austin will eventually pass Dallas in overall number of high-rises or is that too early to call/a flat out no?

Tower 5C has changed...it's now a 50-story office/residential tower.

Yeah...it's more levels. But, I'm not sure it will be the same height as the proposed Tower 5C (657'). It should be north of 575', however.

Dallas is also growing and still building towers, so unless something unexpected happens I would lean towards a flat out no. :)

But not superTALLS. Austin is definitely competition for Dallas & Houston
as technology continues to explode even more of a threat. Old oil is dead.

I think Kevin can pull the actual numbers up...But, Austin has far more 400'+ towers proposed, approved or U/C than does Dallas. The gap IS closing - fast. And, I don't believe it's too big of a gap right now.

Let's not turn this into a city vs city thread, y'all.

Dallas/Fort Worth is booming at ridiculous amounts across the whole metroplex.

Austin is booming at ridiculous amounts as well.

Houston is also, I believe.

San Antonio, too.

Yay, Texas! Let's leave it there. :)

It almost seems like Houston is slowing down a little... but then again I've not been out in a while...

However, all of these new towers are good for Austin. Keep up the good work!

Seems like the whole world is moving to Texas (and Florida). That can hardly be a bad thing for skyscrapers!

An affiliate of Stonelake Capital Partners (“Stonelake”) announced that it has acquired the 0.5-acre site located at the southeast corner of W. 5th Street and Colorado Street in Downtown, where it plans to develop a 50-story tower totaling approximately 465,000 rentable square feet of residences and Class-AA office space. The working name for the development is “5th & Colorado” with full branding and identity to be announced at a later date. The purchase of the land closed in September 2020 for an undisclosed price.

Initial plans for 5th & Colorado call for 318 residences above 100,000-sf of office space. Typical residential floor plans will average 1,150-sf and office floor plates will total 20,000-sf around a central core. 5th & Colorado will feature four (4) residential and office amenity levels including two (2) sky lounges on levels 49 and 50. Separate ground floor lobby entrances and elevator banks will provide distinction for each the office and residences while activating both sides of 5th Street and Colorado with a lively streetscape.

Stonelake has engaged Ziegler Cooper Architects to design 5th & Colorado and Harvey Builders as general contractor. Garza EMC is handling civil engineering. Stonelake will own 100% of 5th & Colorado without an outside equity or development par partner. Construction commencement is tentatively set for Q1 2022 with completion expected early 2025.

I updated the list of Austin's tallest projects:

https://skyscraperpage.com/forum/sho...05&postcount=6

The list has 80 projects over 150'. It doesn't include some projects where we are waiting for height or floor counts. 307 E. 2nd is an example of a big project that we are awaiting height info.

Here are the first 25 on the list. The green highlight means they are U/C.

Please read the story...

This is a new proposal for The Travis-Tower II site. It's now known (at least temporarily) as 80 Red River. There is an entire thread regarding this tower and Travis-Tower I.

And, no...it will be the second tallest in town (as the clowns at the Statesman proclaim). If built (and completed as designed), 98 Red River, 6XGuad and 4th & Brazos will be taller.
