Waterline and Travis with Rainey and down Town Lake - flew from a new location and was a little worried about flying into something by the Waterline, so not the best perspective, but good footage overall. Perfect conditions, but only had time for one take and then had to jet

Awesome video sewaneetigers as always!


I don't think we will be seeing anymore vertical construction until after the new year it seems, as they have lined the top of the core with holiday lights.

Very nice drone video. Living far away it is nice to see the city as it grows.

I see Santa and some reindeer have made an appearance. OSHA might not agree with his PPE. Great pics all around Mopacs.

This is the view that is going to standout so much when completed. Driving in from the Eastside (low rise buildings) and seeing a 1000 ft building standing right there with nothing blocking the view of it from bottom to top will be so amazing.

Going Vertical with Austin’s Waterline

When complete, Waterline will be a 74-story mixed-use residential, office and retail skyscraper, and the tallest tower in Texas.

They identify urban landscapes without a word. They decorate postcards and serve as backdrops for city-dweller balconies and commutes to the office. Iconic skyscrapers give their homes personalities and proof of economic growth, but what makes them special to those who help erect them from the terrain below?

Came across this article. This says the height will be 1,025 feet.

I imagine we’ll be seeing some good height gain on this in 2024.

Great shot Urbannizer. What camera or lens do you use. Your picture looks like how a person sees it with their eyes. When ever I take pictures with my drone or cellphone, the picture always makes the buildings seem further away and smaller than they are in real life.

Usually a 50mm lens on a full frame camera (35mm-ish on an APS-C sensor) is close to what your eye sees.

I think an iPhone camera with the normal lens is something like a 24mm equivalent.

Thanks! IPhone 14. I love taking pics from what the average pedestrian would see, but also elevated pics from high rises and garages. Wander off a bit and you’ll find some interesting viewpoints. These buildings are standing out quite well from S 1st & Barton Springs. Should I post pics in that larger size or keep a smaller format?
