Are there any up to date project lists/posters?

Love that shot!

Here's my November 2017 list of Austin's tallest projects that are at least 150' tall or appear to have at least one building 150' tall or more based on available information. Two more buildings have been added to the list for the December update.
There are five status types: U/C - Cement has been poured Site Prep - Dirt is moving or utility work is underway Site Demo - At least one structure on the site has been or is being demolished Proposed - The project has been announced and/or had building permits filed Planned - Less information is available than a proposed project, more visionary Projects highlighted in green are underway with financing/funding in place. This can include projects with a status other than "U/C". Projects highlighted in yellow have been completed during the current calendar year, and have been removed from the project count. Several of these projects are stale. But I keep them on the list unless either a new proposal for the site is made or the developer sells the site without an approved site plan. https://i.imgur.com/d1ywk6O.png https://i.imgur.com/XnkFSH6.png https://i.imgur.com/3kfiJnd.png https://i.imgur.com/WFlQcnx.png |
Just a slight correction on item #56:
The decommissioned Brackenridge Hospital site is not the same as the Brackenridge Tract, which is off of Lake Austin Blvd west of MoPac: https://www.utsystem.edu/sites/defau...neTOCIntro.pdf |

I'm betting someone who didn't know there were two Brackenridge properties in play might have a heart attack knowing "7 towers" were planned for the less urban location if they lived nearby it.

New renderings for the Block 71 Office Tower, which also got a bump in height to 555 feet.

Domain office towers renderings. These are going to be the tallest buildings outside of downtown and the UT Campus area.

Austin ISD sets eyes on southside building for new headquarters

This will be cool to watch. I work in Domain 8, on the 12th floor, so I can take come pictures for you guys.
I definitely miss working downtown sometimes (for the views) but for the most part I'm over it. So many huge companies are moving to the Domain. It's becoming a real economic power, as opposed to just a mall. |
The Domain is really looking good, and only getting better rapidly. Hopefully it will truly become a second "downtown".
The only things bothering me about it is that some of the nearby neighborhoods are pretty run down, and the area along Burnet Rd south to 183 is very shabby. I think the Burnet Rd corridor will eventually be much better aesthetically, though. |
Speaking of the Burnet Rd corridor:

I counted 23 floors...is that right?
Edit: Just saw the other thread. Exciting addition for the area! |

SOOO happy for the Bjarke Ingels stadium, his work generally all looks like the same stuff, got so dull and monotonous, Gehry-esque. But now this is new and AMAZING, perfect for Texas. Love it.
|
I hate to say it but as much as I want an MLS team to move here and as much as I like those stadium designs, I don't know if the location is right. An MLS team should be in an urban area. Austinites should be able to go to the games without having to drive so far.
Is there really nowhere in the city where they can build a stadium? |

Can see some projects u/c.
Some nice crane activity near the river and the surrounding areas. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4574/...dcc3f900_k.jpg Port Aransas November 2017 by SPEAROFTHOR, on Flickr |
^Nice! Thanks for posting that.
This other one of his shows how the new high rises in West Campus have impacted that neighborhood (west of UT). This one also shows the capitol view corridor on the west side of downtown and the way the buildings are angled away from that corridor to protect the view of the Capitol. https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4577/3...9e5a889b_k.jpg SPEAROFTHOR - https://www.flickr.com/photos/spear_...65672/sizes/k/ |
Nice pics,! These would be good for someone to use to mock future and current projects?
|
I'm picturing an MLS stadium in both of those shots now...

Is the Statesman site ready for redevelopment? I noticed it in the MLS stadium proposal and surely it was part of Amazon HQ2 bid. Also is it part of the South Shore redevelopment or separate?
|
Regarding tower cranes in the city. I came up with 18 just for downtown and West campus.. This doesn't include plaza Saltillo and east Austin.(at least 10 more). Or south(a few) or north to the Domain. Maybe someone local can figure the north Austin total. :)
Either way we have a ton of them currently.:):slob: |
^ Wow!! Gorgeous pics! Hey I remember traveling on Amtrak's Texas Eagle a few yrs back and I recall a ton of crane activity right near the Amtrak station as we were coming into town..
Happy Holidays to all from cool Sacramento. |

Those aerials above are exquisite.

A brochure was posted to the Lincoln Property Company's website which includes an updated building elevation showing 67 floors for the proposed tower at 608 Guadalupe. The height is still shown as 847 feet.
The website also includes some updated renderings with a few design changes. Besides gaining 5 floors and a few facade tweaks, it appears there's a "hole" at the top on the main roof with a balcony and what looks to be a public space on what is the 67th floor. http://www.lpcaustin.com/properties/600-guadalupe/ View from southwest https://i.imgur.com/T2Tsawu.jpg View from southwest https://i.imgur.com/QiTaELP.jpg View from southeast https://i.imgur.com/PpMAD5Q.jpg View from south https://i.imgur.com/XEZuJ1i.jpg View from northwest https://i.imgur.com/2oOSHWX.jpg View from northeast https://i.imgur.com/cqFB64Y.jpg View from west https://i.imgur.com/deOCrEV.jpg View from north/northeast https://i.imgur.com/JqVSC9l.jpg |
Honestly thinking about moving to Austin from San Jose for a couple years. It looks so beautiful

Build now!

Austin made the short list. Look forward to final decision.

Yeah. It's pretty obvious they choose DC. DC, Northern VA, Montgomery County. That's like choosing Austin, West Lake, and Roundrock. Plus Bezos new house in in DC. They played us all for suckers.
