Austin | 200 E. Riverside | 2-4 Towers | 500 Feet | Floors? | Proposed

Thanks for updating the thread Urbannizer. I was too lazy.

Even if it won't start for a while (years...) I love seing action on mixed-use projects of this scale. Especially south of the river. With so much in the pipeline, it's easy to forget that a 500 foot tower would be more than twice as tall as anything else in South Austin.

To clarify the update to this project: Instead of all office, it will now be a mixed use project consisting of an undetermined combination of office, hotel and residential.

The 500' height was approved by the PC, and this project could now be four towers:

Hopefully all 4 towers won't be 500 feet each. I'd rather have different heights than a 500 foot plateau where the buildings just blob together.

Thanks! I drove by the new TxDOT facility on Burleson the other day and was wondering what the status of this site was.

While the towers were originally proposed to be office space atop ground-floor commercial space, the developer is reserving the right for housing. “The goal is to have first-floor retail and the … buildings will probably be hotel or residential,” said Richard ​​Suttle, the lawyer who represented the developer in the Planning Commission meeting. While demand for office space is currently low, Suttle said that the developer is still keeping the possibility of future office space on the table, especially as the Blue Line develops in coming years.

Suttle also explained that the number of towers will be informed by plans for the location of the CapMetro station and proposed Blue Line.

While the project is currently slated for a 2026 completion, commission chair Claire Hempel confirmed with Suttle that the entire site likely won’t be open in 2026. Instead, the towers will probably open in succession. One building will open in 2026 and then the developer plans to determine the usage of the other towers according to market changes.
