This is just across the freeway from the site of the proposed twin 19 story(or maybe even less, I forget) project that got shot down by Ora Houston and the neighborhood NIMBYs. Seems like at 30 floors this would be even more visible, even if it is across the freeway. Anyway, a new view corridor from the state cemetery will be the end of this thing. Let's see whether Trammel Crow and Co. has the chops to negotiate this thicket. I really, really hate the idea of adding more view corridors. It is not PC to say so, but I think for the most part the corridors are just a crock. Austin is not Washington, DC. The capitol dome is visible from several important and imposing viewpoints and will remain visible. Enough is enough.
