Austin | Domain/North Austin

[Novacek]

I agree it will be a while(if ever) before we see "no parking" development at the domain.

Due to its consolidated ownership, it is well positioned for shared parking and centralized parking. For many buildings/uses at the domain this already exists.

That will allow for a very gradual reduction in parking as alternatives (transit, etc.) develop.

Nice big aerial photo of The Bowen and Domain Tower 2 from the article below. After you click on the photo link, click the photo to make it larger.

THE NEW SKYLINE
Major office projects help N. Austin real estate market remain strong

North Austin just keeps rising — literally.

The tallest building north of downtown is nearing completion: the 24-story Domain Tower 2, developed by Stonelake Capital Partners, is scheduled to deliver for tenant buildout in December. That could mean a full opening sometime next year.

Other huge projects, such as Broadmoor next to The Domain and the potential sale of another piece of Robinson Ranch, are also making rumblings.

More than 6,000 acres of the ranch were zoned in 2004 for planned unit development, meaning they could support downtown-like density and multiple towers.

To help put the size of the ranch into perspective, Suttle mentioned it could theoretically host "multiple Domains" and "that would not even put a dent in the available land out there."

You can spot Domain 2 all over the area now. Have seen it from north of Georgetown where 130 and ih35 connect and from East Austin off of 183 and 290

So you're saying at some point in the future when the transit is great, the existing red garage could be demolished and rebuilt if they had excess capacity in the overall system? Pretty cool.

I saw a pretty good view of the Domain from 71 just west of the airport. It included a view of downtown and UT and was one of the best and only views I've seen where the two are visible in the same view. I wasn't expecting it, so I didn't grab a photo. I'll try again when I'm out there next time, unless someone else wants to try it.

Great view!

Domain skyline very prominent now from the south end of Georgetown. Notice the Independent sneaking in as well.

For a totally different reason, I could see it happen before then. Basically, if an apartment is built that does not have enough parking for 1 spot for every 1 bedroom, and they essentially rent out spots separately from the apartments themselves.

So less of "we are doing without cars," and more of "we're going to nickel & dime you for owning a car."

I spotted Domain Tower II from St. Ed's on Tuesday. Of course, that view won't last long as The Republic will block it. The distance is 11 1/2 miles. Waterloo is also prominent here.

6/1

Groundwork looks to be started for tower 9

[JoninATX]

This one just started. Blue fencing is up with construction equipment on site.

Nice to see!

So is the space immediately north of this lot along Alterra Pkwy going to be a little pocket park or is another building planned for there? It's a fairly small space.

It’s a park.

Is there an up to date map showing the Domain office towers? I'm still all mixed up on what's what with Domain Tower 2, 3, and 4. I know that Domain Tower 2 is under construction, but the name change they did on those threw me for a loop. So I was wondering if there's an updated map showing them. Or maybe a marketing brochure?

Super helpful, thanks!

[We vs us]

Anyone know what's happening with Domain tower? It looks like they stopped glassing the superstructure in about halfway up. I haven't seen any changes in a few weeks now.

Also the tower crane is down, too . . . though I'm not sure if a crane is necessary for adding glass.
