Following controversial zoning update, developer outlines plans for East Austin's 12th Street corridor

https://communityimpact.com/austin/c...reet-corridor/

The owner of multiple properties along East 12th Street shared plans to bring hundreds of homes and thousands of square feet of commercial space to the corridor as a push to revitalize the area continues.

A presentation on redevelopment plans from property owner Eureka Development Group came less than one week after City Council signed off on a controversial update to plans regarding land use in the area. That issue had split area residents in recent months over proposed revisions to East 12th Street's Neighborhood Conservation Combining District, or NCCD—a localized city development plan—and what kind of related change, if any, the historic neighborhood's residents want to see.

The developer's plans center around five main projects along the corridor, each including a mix of residential and commercial components alongside parking space. According to Garza and Leonard, current plans include:
East 12th Street at Olander Street: 73,000 square feet of residential space with 108 units, 6,000 square feet of commercial space
East 12th Street at Navasota Street: 53,000 square feet of residential space with 75 units, 10,000 square feet of commercial space
East 12th Street at Comal Street: 6,000 square feet of commercial space behind Hurdle House, parking across the street at Comal and East 13th Street
1500 E. 12th St.: 86,000 square feet of residential space with 126 units, 20,000 square feet of commercial space
East 12th Street at Chicon Street: 40,000 square feet of residential space with 50 units, 3,000 square feet of commercial space

Garza said several of the developments will also include multistory parking garages. And while each project will feature a mix of uses, Leonard said Eureka does not plan to apply for the city's vertical mixed-use zoning designation to build any taller than is currently allowed.

The Planning Commission on Tuesday recommended approval of Vertical Mixed-Use (VMU) zoning for a property along East Cesar Chavez Street, moving a planned mixed-use residential development one step forward.

The project at 3020 E. Cesar Chavez St. could have around 185 units of housing – 19 of which would be affordable at 60 percent of the median family income – with the requested VMU1 zoning. Leah Bojo, representing the applicant for the rezoning, said the project is still in the early stages of planning.

Just about topped out. I still don't know why those cranes had to be so tall.

The garage on that looks very exposed and ugly, but the office above it looks quite nice and the views it'll have will be some of the best in the city for a low-rise.

Stream reveals details for green office mid-rise coming to East Austin

Sustainable design touted for East Fourth Street project on site of Texas Coffee Traders, which'll relocate

https://www.bizjournals.com/austin/n...st-austin.html

A mid-rise office building is coming to one of the hottest parts of Austin, and it's being designed with sustainability in mind.

Stream Realty Partners LP is teaming with global investment manager Barings LLC to develop 1400 East in East Austin, where the amount of office space under development trails only the Central Business District.

The six-story building will rise on one acre at 1400 E. Fourth St., just west of the Plaza Saltillo train station. Square footage for the building has not yet been determined.

Developers are targeting a gold rating from the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification system, said Connor Greissing, managing director and partner for Stream in Austin. That is the second-highest level attainable in the widely used LEED program, which recognize buildings that save money, improve efficiency, lower carbon emissions and create healthier places for people, according to the USGBC website.

The building’s sustainable design elements are still being finalized, Greissing said, but the design will be "biophilic."

Springdale Green has had some incredibly quick progress. I drive by it once a week and every time I'm stunned by how fast they are building it.

Looking at the renderings, despite being exposed, it will be nicely clad, and ground floor will office/retail/multiuse space. It looks like it'll be fairly tastefully done. But yes, underground parking is better.

It looks like it is underground on the uphill side.

With 6 cranes it should be moving fast.
