Today, Lincoln Property Company and Karioi Residential, in partnership with DivcoWest, are proud to announce they have reached two major milestones at Sixth and Guadalupe in Downtown Austin the topping out of the commercial portion of the building and commencement of residential construction. Designed by Gensler and constructed by JE Dunn, Sixth and Guadalupe will be the first mixed-use high-rise in Austin to combine over a million square feet of office, residential, retail, and outdoor space within one carefully choreographed building, including 9,984 square feet of retail on the ground floor, 14 levels of below and above-grade parking with ample electric vehicle chargers, 589,112 square feet of Class A office space on floors 14 through 32, and 349 residential homes on floors 34 through 66. Upon completion, this new tower will transform Austin's skyline as the tallest building in the city at 875 feet and the fifth-tallest building in Texas.

I doubt that we will see updated elevations for the height adjustment. So maybe we settle on 875' as the official height per the article?

It looks like the 6xG website and the brochure linked to on the website was updated.

So we have 875’, 876’, and 883’ so far. I’m wondering what it’ll end up being.

Amen. I seriously can't keep up here lol. If it has risen, where the hell is that extra height going? Wish someone would tell me

The fact that this will be taller than the Bank Of America tower in Charlotte is pretty wild. Austin is moving up the ranks fast.

There will be a 6-foot man standing on the roof holding his hand up in the air.

I was thinking a year round LED christmas tree, but that's way less tacky

I mean we have to count the top of the mechanical funicular.

IMO it looks better than the renderings. What do y’all think?

The ATX · #**2313** Posted **Nov 18, 2021, 9:17 PM**

I think it looks better. Albeit a low bar to surpass.

the Genral · #**2314** Posted **Nov 18, 2021, 10:39 PM**

I think it looks ok. At least its relatively a small area compared to the scope of the rest of the building. And its far better than 3rd and Shoal's and Indy's.

True. The independent is really bad.

I think lighting will be the real determinant of this screen's success. It might not be very stunning during the day, but if they can pull off the lighting scheme shown in the last update The ATX posted from the 6xG website, it could be pretty elegant IMO.
