Construction on 'Jenga' tower set to start next month
AUSTIN -- Developers building The Independent, a 58-story condo building that resembles the game Jenga, have closed on a deal with the City of Austin to purchase an 1.7 acre lot at 3rd Street and West Avenue for $14.5 million.
Construction is set to start on the building in January 2016. Once complete, The Independent will take the title as Austin's tallest building and tallest residential tower west of the Mississippi. It's housed in the rapidly transforming Seaholm District.
Urbanspace was charged with selling the 374 condo units. Potential buyers reserved 90 percent of the units in just one week and it's easy to see why; in addition to the prime location, there are a lot of perks.
