This is gorgeous. I hope it lives up to the rendering.

It should since this is the approved & released site plan version of it. Most renderings that get downgraded are early in the approval process. But it actually did get valued engineered in that a few floors were knocked of the final version.

This is comprehensive for what is working thru the process, correct?
What is the list when confined to only those already under construction?

17 of the 51 are officially underway. That doesn't count projects with Demo or site prep that are lacking confirmation like 98 Red River.

Here's the latest rendering of the 802' Ritz-Carlton project. It's shorter twin tower is the U/C ~600' Travis tower. The supertall with site prep will be directly behind these two. They will make for a nice peak on the eastern edge of the skyline.

Looks very nice!

Well now. I like that. Some of the other talls so far have been kind of meh for me, but this is good. I like the sense of texture on the facade. It almost looks 3 dimensional with those south balconies.

I think I like it but it's kind of hard to tell what I'm looking at. It's not blue glass on the left part of the southern side of the taller tower, but a shadow? I don't understand the angle of the shadow here. It seems off.

I agree this seems mismatched and all over the place. But it's not bad!

There are fewer windows on the south side, and it appears lighter because of the light colored facade and the sun. I also just noticed that The Shore complements these pretty well with its color.

This is obviously not true to perspective since none of the renderings are really from the same vantage point, but a quick shoddy attempt to see how this cluster will eventually look. Scale and placement should be fairly accurate. Gives us a good idea of composition until more renderings and someone with better photoshop skills comes around!

The Northern half of the Rainey District. ;) And only two of those have not yet broken ground.

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?

Nashville is presently undergoing a mind-boggling skyline transformation.

Toronto and Nashville even more so than all of the above.

Very true. However, Austin's height and total volume (both in high-rises and other citywide urban infill) are slightly more impressive - IMHO. Don't get me wrong. Nashville and Austin are in a league of there own with regard to the amount of development versus their size (population).
