You need the image link to post it, but I'm not real sure where to get that. I'm not really familiar with Instagram, but from whatever image host you're posting photos from, you need the image link to do it. You did the forum [IMG] tags correctly.

One thing that's always struck me about the Austonian is that for a residential building it seems so dark and empty at night. Even in the early evening.

I've wondered about that also. It seems like there are several lights on even in that photo, but I wonder if the type of glass has any sort of affect on it. Anyone know more about this than me? (dumb question probably, haha!) Just curious.

I wonder what the actual occupancy rate is of people who have their primary residence there vs. others who use it as a place to park money like people do in Miami.

These are recent ones of Austin - in the last two months.

This first one shows The Domain on the horizon, too.

This is a great aerial helicopter tour of Austin and the western hills/Lake Travis. Very impressive scenery. Includes celebrity/billionaire's homes from above.

Austin was number 14

From an on-line Forbes article about top vacation destinations for 2021.

I like how they feature Austin in that article twice.

1. Tonight's sunset was great!
2. I think the skyline looks better and more impressive from the southeast than just about any other direction.
3. 44 East is going to have a huge impact on the skyline!
4. Oh, and one last thought, the Austonian needs to light its damn crown! They rarely do.

That's a beautiful photo, Gabe. I saw it lit tonight on Fox 7's newscast from their tower cam on One Eleven Congress.
