Well, not quite. Austin West lake and Roundrock are all in the same state.

Technically, it is the Seaholm Development District / Seaholm EcoDistrict. https://austintexas.gov/seaholm

There seem to be 9 highrises in total in these two renderings:

4 on the northern half (from west to east: 60, ~54, ~21, & ~30 floors), 4 on the southern (from west to east: 30, 49, 40, and 46 floors), and the round one in the middle closest to I-35 (~34 floors). If built as such, this will be the most prominent node in our skyline, even without considering multiple neighboring highrise proposals in the development pipeline:

The 2nd image is looking north over Waterloo Park between Red River Street and I-35. I-35 is to the right.

The first image is looking east toward I-35.

Yup... got it now. The big pinkish Sheraton would be 'behind' the viewer in second shot.

^Yep. Apparently, though, this is a proposal from Brandywine, which did not win the bid. Wexler did, so we'll still have to wait to see what the design will be. Still, if this is what wasn't chosen, then the one that did win must be pretty good. And I would assume the scale would be about the same.

The Independent update:

Crane jump today and working on the 49th floor - 528 feet - 0 inches tall now.
