The newer renderings are Great and I Really Like the 50/50 Apt/Condo ratio for the project.
There needs to be ratios of Apt/Condo on all the larger projects along All Major Corridors. Lamar, Congress, Burnet and Hwy 183. This would help provide more affordable/starter housing in this city. After a certain number of units in a project, the city should be allowed to mandate a certain percentage of units in the development as, "for sale units." I understand that on small projects this will kill development, however, the size of a lot of what has been built could have maybe 15% - 20% of the development as Condos. Stand alone or visually attached but separate entities. Maybe this is Pie-in-the-Sky...uhm...socialism think, especially here in TX. But entry level housing Is Not Being Built where it needs to be built! That is Undisputed.
