The entire video of nothing but stock footage is one of the greatest things ever.

This is one of the weirdest things a mixed used development to put on their website:

EIGHTFOLD’s philosophy is based on the tenets of the Buddhist Noble Eightfold Path and is designed to create a community without boundaries, transcending traditional work and life environments and awakening the body, mind, and spirit. By focusing on natural restoration and modern technological innovation, EIGHTFOLD envisions a compact, diversified space to empower entrepreneurship, art, innovation, and wellness, interweaving all eight pillars into community members’ daily lives.
The non-existent Yogo Studios being on of the 8 pillars is nice.

Mark your calendars, the next yoga class will be held at 4 p.m.
Oh boy guys, the next Yoga class is in a location we can't explain at 4PM on a day we can't define. Maybe it's in the pillar of your inner-mind of office building.

and of course, the pillar of organic farming that every co-office work-life restorative nonspiritual mind-body experience needs:

The best part of all of this, is it's just an old underused low-rise suburban tech park that is being lightly renovated to update it and rent out the same facilities that have been there for 20 years.

This screams "rich guy made a smart unexciting investment that is a slam-dunk cash maker in the current Austin setting and has a niece/nephew/kid that they let put their marketing degree to work"
