Nimby-ism is alive and well in Austin, so I think most densification will happen in re-purposed shopping center or light industry locations simply because many of them are well located vis-a-vis transit options, and mid-rise or possibly even high rise development in such settings would not arouse too much local opposition. There is still a lot of room for sprawl in the Austin area, but commute times have become a major issue due to intense freeway congestion and lack of rail transit.
